I've been looking for something completely different while I noticed
this:

in drivers/tty/serial/omap-serial.c
| static struct platform_driver serial_omap_driver = {
|         .driver         = {
|                 .name   = DRIVER_NAME,
|         },
| };
|

and DRIVER_NAME should come from include/linux/platform_data/serial-omap.h
Looking further, I've found arch/arm/mach-omap2/serial.c:
| void __init omap_serial_init_port(struct omap_board_data *bdata,
|                         struct omap_uart_port_info *info)
| {
|         char *name
…
|	name = DRIVER_NAME;
…
|	pdev = omap_device_build(name, uart->num, oh, pdata, pdata_size);
…
|

Would this explain it?
