Simplifying the code makes it more readable:
1.Use dev_name instead of pdev->driver->name.
2.There is no need to call wiphy_dev again.

Did you test this with some wifi device before and after applying the
patch. This is not correct as pdev->driver->name is the name of the
*driver* and dev_name(pdev) is the name of the *device*. Those are two
different things.
