The kerneldoc format for describing the return value is

If you would like for it to actually be valid to pass NULL for name,
then I think you should move this check to the top of the function.

But I suspect that you're looking for (name[0] == '\0'), to check if we
where passed an empty string, e.g. from a resource table without
resource names.

Just return carveout when you find it.
