it's pdev->dev.name.

Ideally for device tree, devm_usb_get_phy_by_phandle() introduced in the 
5th patch of this series should be used.
usb_bind_phy should be called from platform specific initialization 
files (like your board file), which won't get executed in dt boot.

Thats not going to be good. Why do you need to do that?
