Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/3] net: ethernet: adi: make name member of struct
 adin1110_cfg a pointer

Primary reason for this change is to remove the misuse of MDIO_NAME_SIZE
here, so that this constant can be removed in a follow-up patch.
Use case here is simply a chip name w/o any relationship to a MDIO
device. Also there's no need to reserve a longer char array, so make
the name a pointer.
