[ Upstream commit 43007b89fb2de746443fbbb84aedd1089afdf582 ]
When multiple Apple devices are connected concurrently, the apple-mfi-fastcharge driver fails to probe the subsequent devices with the following error:
sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/class/power_supply/apple_mfi_fastcharge' apple-mfi-fastcharge 5-2.4.3.3: probe of 5-2.4.3.3 failed with error -17
This happens because the driver uses a fixed power supply name ("apple_mfi_fastcharge") for all devices, causing a sysfs name conflict when a second device is connected.
Fix this by generating unique names using the USB bus and device number (e.g., "apple_mfi_fastcharge_5-12"). This ensures each connected device gets a unique power supply entry in sysfs.
The change requires storing a copy of the power_supply_desc structure in the per-device mfi_device struct, since the name pointer needs to remain valid for the lifetime of the power supply registration.
