[PATCH] OMAPDSS: restore "name" sysfs entry.

OMAPDSS: rename display-sysfs 'name' entry

broke the xorg X server on my device as it couldn't find the display
any more. It needs the 'name' file and now there isn't one.

That commit claims that 'name' is not compatible with i2c or spi.
i2c does register it own 'name' file, but spi does not, hence my
problem - I have an spi display.

So create a special case for i2c: add the name attribute for non-i2c
devices.

Hi Tomi,
I wonder if you would consider this for the next merge window (or maybe even sooner as a bug-fix).
I haven't tested it with an i2c display, but it certainly allows xorg to work
on my spi-attached display.

Thanks,
NeilBrown
