OMAPDSS: rename display-sysfs 'name' entry
broke the xorg X server on my device as it couldn't find the display
any more. It needs the 'name' file and now there isn't one.
That commit claims that 'name' is not compatible with i2c or spi.
i2c does register it own 'name' file, but spi does not, hence my
problem - I have an spi display.
So create a special case for i2c: add the name attribute for non-i2c
devices.
What X driver is that? What's it doing with the display name? Is it just
using the display name to show something for the user, and the returned
value can be essentially any string?
