Subject: [PATCH] mtd: fsl-quadspi: Distinguish the mtd device names

From: Fabio Estevam <fabio.estevam at nxp.com>

Currently on a imx6sx-sdb board, which has two SPI NOR chips connected
to QSPI2 the following output from /proc/mtd is seen:

# cat /proc/mtd
dev:    size   erasesize  name
mtd0: 01000000 00010000 "21e4000.qspi"
mtd1: 01000000 00010000 "21e4000.qspi"

Attempts to partition them on the kernel command line result in both
chips with identical (and identically named) partitions, which is
an inconvenient behavior.

Assign a different mtd->name for each mtd device to avoid this problem.

After this change the output from /proc/mtd becomes:

# cat /proc/mtd
dev:    size   erasesize  name
mtd0: 01000000 00010000 "fsl-quadspi.0"
mtd1: 01000000 00010000 "fsl-quadspi.1"
