Isn't the usual response to write some udev rules to set the name based on device characteristics? Thus taking the naming policy out of the module and into userspace. Since you're defining a numbering order when you load the module, if you have 2 or more devices which use the module then your solution doesn't solve the problem of controlling the numbers because it depends which device the kernel finds first. With udev, if there's some way to distinguish between two of the same device, then rules can be written to set the name of each.
