SubjectRe: [PATCH net-next v3 1/5] mlxsw: minimal: fix mlxsw_m_module_get_drvinfo() to correctly report driver name

Before the series:

# ethtool -i eth2 | grep driver
driver: mlxsw_minimal

After the series:

# ethtool -i eth2 | grep driver
driver: mlxsw_minimal

See:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.1-rc1/source/drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlxsw/minimal.c#L721

The current code is consistent with the PCI driver:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.1-rc1/source/drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlxsw/spectrum_ethtool.c#L17

Which also correctly reports the driver name.

So I prefer to keep the code as-is.

Thanks
