This I don't really like for two reasons:

1) I don't know of any other driver that uses the actual chip name in
the interrupt (most use either the driver name or the module name)
2) As someone with a large number of these things in a single box,
knowing which actual device is going up in /proc/interrupts is valuable
to me

How about I look at abstracting the name so that the glue driver (in
your case lasi700) can set the name?
