Using nodeaction devarg lets creating multiple ring eth devices:
"eth_ring0,nodeaction=R0:0:CREATE,nodeaction=R1:0:CREATE"
Trying to create all devices with same name fails. Since first part of
the nodeaction devarg is name (in above sample R0,R1), this name field
can be used as eth dev name.
Fixes: 61934c0956d4 ("ring: convert to use of PMD_REGISTER_DRIVER and fix
linking")
