nvme: work around -Wformat-security warning

Browse source

Passing a string variable into dev_set_name() causes a warning
when building with -Wformat-security enabled:

drivers/nvme/host/core.c: In function 'nvme_cdev_add':
drivers/nvme/host/core.c:3911:9: error: format not a string literal and no format arguments [-Werror=format-security]
 3911 |         ret = dev_set_name(cdev_device, name);

Remove the temporary strings and let dev_set_name() do the
same thing internally.
