name conflict with udmabuf driver in mainline linux #115

It seems like the name of this driver conflicts with (or at least will be prone to create confusion with) the udmabuf driver in mainline linux.

Maybe "uio-dma-buf" would be a good alternative?

Ah I should have bothered to finish reading the README before creating an issue... although I do think "uio-dma-buf" would have been a better name compared to just inserting some dashes (especially since the compact form "udmabuf" continues to show up in places e.g. /dev/udmabuf0)
