Subject[PATCH] serial: 8250: 8250_core: Use dev_name() during request_irq()
Message-ID<tiIT8-6v2-15@gated-at.bofh.it>
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.

Output of cat /proc/interrupts
Before this patch:

After this patch:

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.

I don't know if it worth to mention that some (testing) tools may
depend on this name.
Besides that imagine what would be the name of PCI device here. I
would suggest adding ID if you need one in a form like
"serial%d", where ID may or may not be supplied by the actual 8250 drivers.

I wonder how such tools will distinguish b/w different serial device
instances. But, this change is making interrupt name more descriptive
and maybe help test tools to distinguish irqs more easily

Are you suggesting to use serial_index() as ID?

It doesn't in PCI case, it makes it worse.

indeed, in PCI case, I see 

4: ... 00:03.3

what about "dev_driver_string(up->port.dev)[dev_name(up->port.dev)]" as
we did for ahci case?
