[RFC] CamelCase can it be fixed per Checkpatch.pl script

Found some files in Staging Drivers for which checkpatch.pl throws a CHECK to
+remove CamelCase.

For instance in program vt6655/card.c find the usage of CamelCase as
i) Variable names eg: &priv->apTD0Rings[0]
ii) Function names eg: void CARDvSafeResetRx(

Note: some of the functions are
+static functions

Reviewed lore and seems in some instances removing CamelCase was allowed and in
+some case removing them was disallowed.

Hence wanted comments if we should change them or not.

Thanks
Ashok
