So, if this won't support sparse CS list, I would just go with a standard range:

	dev_set_name(&spi->dev, "%s.%u-%u", dev_name(&spi->controller->dev),
		     spi_get_chipselect(spi, 0), spi_get_chipselect(spi, 0) + spi->num_chipselect - 1);

(yes, need a variation for num_chipselect == 1, but I leave the rest for you)

Note, I do not see that we are expecting to see the sparse CS list here. It
would make too complex logic to follow. So, range approach is KISS in my opinion.
