Subject: [PATCH v7 02/10] spmi: Remove redundant dev_name() print in spmi_device_add()

Function spmi_device_add() uses dev_{dbg,err}() for respectively
debug and error prints, and passes the same device pointer as both
the dev_{dbg,err}() parameters and to a dev_name() that is part of
the actual message.
This means that the device name gets printed twice!

Remove the redundant dev_name() from the messages.
