While preparing v2 I remembered that in fact, I called the functions 
nvbios_rom_* because the name of the nvbios_source struct is nvbios_rom, 
so for me it made sense to use the name of the struct as a prefix for 
the functions.

So I'm OK to change it to nvbios_prom_* but it looks less logical to me.

Please confirm you still prefer nvbios_prom as prefix to the function names.
