Passing "serial" as name during request_irq() results in all serial port
irqs have same name. This does not help much to easily identify which
irq belongs to which serial port instance. Therefore pass dev_name()
during request_irq() so that better identifiable name is listed for
serial ports in cat /proc/interrupts output.

I need a "full" name here, unless you really do sign legal documents
with just one letter as a last/sur-name?

Its perfectly alright not to expand surname here in India. FWIW, my ID
cards also have the same name.
I have been contributing to the kernel with above Signed-off-by line in
the past and would want to continue to use the same.
