A number of network PHY drivers use the following code: name = devm_hwmon_sanitize_name(dev, dev_name(dev)); if (IS_ERR(name)) return PTR_ERR(name); devm_hwmon_device_register_with_info(dev, name, ..); Make this a generic fallback option and use the device name if no name is provided to devm_hwmon_device_register_with_info(). This would allow to simplify the affected drivers.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
