[net-next RFC PATCH 3/6] mod_devicetable: permit to define a name for an mdio_device_id

[Christian Marangi]

Permit to optionally define a name for an mdio_device_id. This can be
used for PHY driver that might define multiple PHY IDs for the same group
of PHY driver OPs to define different names for each PHY ID and better
identify the different models at runtime.
