ACPI / device_sysfs: Avoid OF modalias creation for removed device
If SSDT overlay is loaded via ConfigFS and then unloaded the device,
we would like to have OF modalias for, already gone. Thus, acpi_get_name()
returns no allocated buffer for such case and kernel crashes afterwards:

In order to fix above let create_of_modalias() check the status returned
by acpi_get_name() and bail out in case of failure.
