From: Jiri Pirko <j...@mellanox.com>

Currently, the name format is not required by the code, however it is
required during patch review. All params added until now are in-lined
with the following format:
1) lowercase characters, digits and underscored are allowed
2) underscore is neither at the beginning nor at the end and
   there is no more than one in a row.

Add checker to the code to require this format from drivers and warn if
they don't follow.

v1->v2:
- removed empty line after comment
- added check for empty string
- converted i and len to size_t and put on a single line
- s/valid_name/name_valid/ to be aligned with the rest
