Subject: [PATCH 3.14 60/83] mtd: diskonchip: mem resource name is not optional

3.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sasha Levin <sasha.levin@...cle.com>

commit 86e4bbc766b9456f583f2fc3c4f6c623b422af88 upstream.

Passing a name to request_mem_region() isn't optional and can't just
be NULL. Passing NULL causes a NULL ptr deref later in the boot
process.
