Mdev alias should be unique among all the mdevs, so that when such alias
is used by the mdev users to derive other objects, there is no
collision in a given system.

Changelog:
v1->v2:
 - Moved alias NULL check at beginning
v0->v1:
 - Fixed inclusiong of alias for NULL check
 - Added ratelimited debug print for sha1 hash collision error

!strcmp(alias, tmp->alias) is a more common kernel pattern.

Also if we limit max len of the alias in patch 1, maybe use that to limit the
string compare too.

Any reason not to merge this into the first patch?

No. It surely can be merged. Its easy to start with smaller patches instead of splitting. :-)
Doing uniqueness comparison was easy to split as independent functionality, so did as 2nd patch.
But either way is ok.
