It only does the same thing *if* chip->name is set. And in this
particular case it really shouldn't be set, as it isn't a constant
string.

And this assignment will probably explode if, as expected, 'chip' is
const and cannot be written to.

I obviously didn't spot this when I first looked at these patches.
