Subject: [PATCH 1/2] drivers: base: Warn if driver name is not present
Date:   Mon,  8 Jun 2020 11:52:16 +0200

From: Matthias Brugger <mbrugger@suse.com>

If we pass a driver without a name, we end up in a NULL pointer
derefernce. Check for the name before trying to register the driver.
As we don't have a driver name to point to in the error message, we dump
the call stack to make it easier to detect the buggy driver.
