I like this idea, but now that the name logic has changed in the i2c
code, care to re-do this patch?  Just set the name field instead of
creating a new file in sysfs.

something like attached patch? I like it as well :)

Why rename local variables?  Your patch would be a lot smaller if you
just keep the same local name variable, and fix up the name strings.

To make it clear for anyone porting other drivers that we are using type_name 
and not client_name or whatever. In 2.4 every driver have both; mixing name, 
type_name and client_name will just add to confusion.

I will redo patch if you insist but I really prefer having things consistent 
if possible.

thank you
