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?
