You're not describing what this function does, but why it was
introduced. Not sure the spi-mem user/driver cares about that, these are
just internal details. Probably something you should put in the
->get_name() hook doc.

Ditto. Just say that this function returns the spi-mem device name which
can be used by the upper layer if they need to expose a user-friendly
name.

     Return: a string containing the name of the memory device to be
	     used by the spi-mem user

Can you fix this typo in a separate patch?

You forgot to document this hook. Also, it's important to mention that
if the name returned by this function is dynamically allocated, it
should be allocated with devm_xxxx(), because we don't have a
->free_name() function.
