Have you seen driver->name usage in drivers/net/szedata2/rte_eth_szedata2.c
rte_szedata2_eth_dev_init() which is used from probe?

It looks like drivers/net/mlx5/mlx5.c
mlx5_pci_probe()->mlx5_dev_spawn()->mlx5_dev_to_port_id() goes
to device->driver. Is the code OK with the move?

I've added above drivers maintainers in CC.
