An empty string is not a bug. I'm trying to push the part names out of
the kernel and just expose the jedec id.

That being said, the description is really missing the point. See my
previous suggestion:

The attribute is optional. User space shouldn't rely on it to
be present or even correct. Instead, user space should read the
jedec_id attribute.
