Hi Ciprian

There are a set of drivers that do it similarly to this (amongst other
things because I wasn't paying attention a few years back).

Generally we've considered them unfixable unfortunately because it's
common to use name to find the device - so userspace breakage is
very likely.

If we are introducing new device support thought here can't be a platform
already relying on the old naming.  So weird though it seems, can you fix
this just for the newly supported models and leave the old ones 'broken'?
(with a big note on why!)  Perhaps do that by leaving .name = NULL for the
older parts and doing a check on that to select behaviour.

Thanks,

Jonathan
