The current name field used in the remoteproc structure is simply a pointer to a name field supplied during the rproc_alloc() call. The pointer passed in by remoteproc drivers during registration is typically a dev_name pointer, but it is possible that the pointer will no longer remain valid if the devices themselves were created at runtime like in the case of of_platform_populate(), and were deleted upon any failures within the respective remoteproc driver probe function. So, allocate and maintain a local copy for this name field to keep it agnostic of the logic used in the remoteproc drivers.
