ok.  the prefix is from a time where we had no idea that gta02 would
exist and how it would look like.  please feel free to submit a patch
for the rename + gta02 integration.  please also rename the platform
device (gta01-pm-{gps,gsm,bt}), then.  

Please also investigate which kind of changes to userspace are required,
I guess neod or some other things will need to adopt to the new naming.

For GSM and bluetooth it should also change from gta01 to neo1973.

In general, I think everything that is sufficently similar should have a
common neo1973 name.  The vibrator, e.g. also needs to be renamed.

Everything that is device specific will keep gta01 / gta02 naming.
