md: make 'name' arg to md_register_thread non-optional.

Having the 'name' arg optional and defaulting to the current personality name is no necessary and leads to errors, as when changing the level of an array we can end up using the name of the old level instead of the new one. So make it non-optional and always explicitly pass the name of the level that the array will be. Reported-by: majianpeng <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <[email protected]>
