06bb6f5a69df ("mtd: spi-nor: stop (ab)using struct
spi_device_id") converted an array into a pointer, which means that
we should be checking if the pointer goes anywhere, not whether the C
string is empty. To do the latter means we dereference a NULL pointer
when we reach the terminating entry, for which 'name' is now NULL
instead of an array { 0, 0, ... }.
Sample crash:
