This looks *really* strange.  Why do we need to pass in a name to set in
s3c64xx_device_spi0's name, why would we want to use a different name?
This dev_name also isn't equivalent to dev_name() which makes matters
more confusing than they need to be.

There was similar code for the I2C controllers which caused some really
hard to debug brittleness.
