When Jiri suggested to use a define, I did not read it as meaning a 
define local within the driver, but rather a define that would span 
beyond you driver that would match what is expected to be used by 
drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-designware-pcidrv.c.

As a matter of fact, there are quite a few drivers that expect to use 
this driver name:

git grep i2c_designware *
drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-designware-pcidrv.c:MODULE_ALIAS("i2c_designware-pci");
drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-designware-platdrv.c:MODULE_ALIAS("platform:i2c_designware");
drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-designware-platdrv.c:            .name   = 
"i2c_designware",
drivers/mfd/intel-lpss.c:       .name = "i2c_designware",
drivers/mfd/intel_quark_i2c_gpio.c:#define 
INTEL_QUARK_I2C_CONTROLLER_CLK "i2c_designware.0"
drivers/mfd/intel_quark_i2c_gpio.c:             .name = "i2c_designware",
drivers/net/ethernet/wangxun/txgbe/txgbe_phy.c: snprintf(clk_name, 
sizeof(clk_name), "i2c_designware.%d",
drivers/net/ethernet/wangxun/txgbe/txgbe_phy.c: info.name = 
"i2c_designware";

so they should all be covered by using a define under 
include/linux/i2c-designware.h.
