[PATCH master 1/3] driver: have dev_name(unregistered device) behave as expected

[Ahmad Fatoum <ahmad@a3f.at>]

For drivers that create new virtual child devices, error paths often
tend to use dev_name() on the uninitialized device via the dev_ family
of logging functions. Many such uninitialized devices have a name set
already though, but just lacks registration, which leads to dev_id
returning dev->unique_name, which may be NULL. Change dev_name to
return dev->name if dev->unique_name is NULL.
