[aur-requests] Package rename request

I have a package in the AUR (linux-macbook-pro) that includes patches for
suspending support on the MacBook Pro. It also includes patches that I
backported from the master branch of the linux kernel which fixes a bunch
of issues with CPU frequency scaling. I've been testing this package on my
MacBook Air and confirmed that suspending and the fixes with the
intel_pstate driver also work on this hardware.

I wanted to change the package name from linux-macbook-pro to just
linux-macbook but it appears that a package by that name already exists in
the AUR even though it doesn't show up when searching for it:

16:39:13 borg ~/Documents/Git $ git clone
https://aur.archlinux.org/linux-macbook.git
Cloning into 'linux-macbook'...

16:39:20 borg ~/Documents/Git $ cd linux-macbook/
16:39:24 borg (master) ~/Documents/Git/linux-macbook $ ls
PKGBUILD  change-default-console-loglevel.patch  linux.preset
config.x86_64
config    bluetooth.patch                        linux.install

Can anyone help with this or point me in the correct direction? Thanks in
advance.
