PARAMETERS

       dip	A pointer to the device's dev_info structure.

       ddi_binding_name() and ddi_get_name() return the driver binding name. This is the name used to select a driver for the device. This name is
       typically derived from the device  name property or the device compatible property. The name returned may be a driver alias or  the  driver
       name.

RETURN VALUES

       ddi_binding_name() and ddi_get_name() return the name used to bind a driver to a device.
