I got a null-ptr-deref report when doing fault injection test:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
RIP: 0010:strlen+0x0/0x20
Call Trace:
start_creating+0x199/0x2f0
debugfs_create_dir+0x25/0x430
__iio_device_register+0x4da/0x1b40 [industrialio]
__devm_iio_device_register+0x22/0x80 [industrialio]
max1027_probe+0x639/0x860 [max1027]
spi_probe+0x183/0x210
really_probe+0x285/0xc30
If dev_set_name() fails, the dev_name() is null, check the return
value of dev_set_name() to avoid the null-ptr-deref.

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 Restructured Text 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.
