Here if we have two identical chips on the same bus, they probably will
both add an ancillary device with the same name. Then a message like:

  i2c i2c-0: ds90ub954-q1: Address for rxport0: 0x40

won't tell which ds90ub954-q1 device is using that address. I'd rather
disambiguate using something like:

  dev_info(adapter_dev, "%s: Address for %s: 0x%x\n",
           dev_name(&client->dev), name, addr);

Sure, this issue did exist before this patch, but since the line is
being promoted from dbg to info (which is OK), it's probably a good idea
to improve the content, perhaps in a separate patch.

Except for that, I tested the patch and it's working fine.
