This patch-set is just using existing style, no special intention.

Basically, I have no special objection about _only vs _disabled,
but I think it will be 50:50 no matter which style we choose.

But switching "_only" into "_disabled" should be another patch-set,
I think. But I'm happy to do it if everyone want it.

Thank you for your help !!

Best regards
