Any strong reason for not giving the device a more informative name?
Reading "dummy" in several /sys/bus/i2c/devices/?-????/name files is not
helping. Using the 'name' string that is passed to
i2c_new_ancillary_device() would be way better, perhaps prefixed by
dev->name. But this opens the question of why not doing it in
i2c_new_dummy_device() as well, which currently receives no "name"
parameter.

Of course this is not strictly related to this patch and can be done in
a later step.

About the patch itself, except for the issues pointed out by Geert the
approach looks generally good to me.
