All I know of the history of this change is at
<http://crosreview.com/57061>. My best guess is that Bill was trying
to differentiate public vs. private function pointers. Perhaps he
will chime in.

If it helps the other command_xxx() function pointers are removed in
the later "mfd: cros_ec: cleanup: Remove EC wrapper functions"

If you wish I can skip this rename, just let me know and it won't be
too much trouble.
