The doc says the I²C device's name is used if devname is NULL, but
actually the I²C device driver's name is used.
Fixes commit 0658293012af ("media: v4l: subdev: Add a function to set an I²C sub-device's name")

Apparently you can't provide a proper device name in ACPI (see [1]), so
using the driver's name is reasonable. Adjust function documentation
accordingly.
