Note that the existing names currently don't incorporate the .id
field as a suffix, and so never were unique.
No, this is just a basic part of how platform devices work - the device
name is always the same and if you've got more than one of them they get
different .ids.  dev_name() returns name.id, or just name if id is set
to -1 indicating that there's onyl one device of a given type.
