This broke device-trees that have no label property. The SRAM DT binding
says:

"
label:
description:
	The name for the reserved partition, if omitted, the label is taken
	from the node name excluding the unit address.
"

Not sure whether breakage was on purpose, otherwise doc needs to be
updated or there should be explicit check for the duplicated node names.

Secondly, AFAICS, the dev_name(sram->dev) is the name of the parent SRAM
device and not of the children sub-nodes, hence it's now always the same
dev_name(sram->dev) for all sub-nodes.
