[PATCH v5 5/7] clocksource/drivers/exynos_mct: Fix uninitialized irq name warning

The Exynos MCT driver doesn't set the clocksource name until the CPU
hotplug state is setup which happens after the IRQs are requested. This
results in an empty IRQ name which leads to the below warning at
proc_create() time. When this happens, the userdata partition fails to
mount and the device gets stuck in an endless loop printing the error:
root '/dev/disk/by-partlabel/userdata' doesn't exist or does not contain a /dev.
To fix this, we just need to initialize the name before requesting the
IRQs.
