The 'device_name' array doesn't exist out of the
'overflow_allocation_test' function scope.  However, it is being used as a
driver name when calling 'kunit_driver_create' from
'kunit_device_register'.  It produces the kernel panic with KASAN enabled.

Since this variable is used in one place only, remove it and pass the
device name into kunit_device_register directly as an ascii string.
