serial: 8250: 8250_core: Use dev_name() during request_irq()
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
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
