Description
The nova-core driver currently have driver name "NovaCore", and similarly nova-drm driver has name "Nova", which is not the usual kernel convention where it either use snake_case or kebab-case.
We should change it to match before nova is out of experimental stage and the driver name becomes an UAPI (e.g. exposed to driver_override).
nova-core driver should be named "nova-core", and @dakr suggests that we should name the nova-drm driver "nova-drm" instead of the generic "Nova" as it does today.
