We tend to write "Rename the various...", as if you the patch author
is giving an order to "become so" to the codebase, or "make it so"

Other than that, this step looks straight-forward, and I agree with
the hope that this will reduce confusion that readers may have while
reading a future version of this code.

Thanks.
