The sb700_ prefix was introduced in the early v2 tree many years ago because our old build system "newconfig" could not handle two files with the same name in different paths like /path/to/usb.c and /another/path/to/usb.c correctly. Only one of the files would end up being compiled into the final image.
Since Kconfig (actually since shortly before we switched to Kconfig) we don't suffer from that problem anymore. So we could drop the sb700_ prefix from all those filenames (or, the <componentname>_ prefix in general)
Yup, I like it. I'd do it in small steps though (one SB/NB/superio at a time) otherwise it's probably too much tedious work and will break lots of pending patches etc.
