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.

I don't understand why this needs to be a separate patch. This check
seems to be an inseparable part of mdev alias feature.
Please squash to the previous patch.

Ok. Cornelia had the same comment too.
The previous patch had relatively more delta, and since this patch can be split functionally,
I kept it as separate one.
Either way works.
