In the commit 62db5cb, the device name validation was consolidated with
the function which converts name to device number. Particularly, the
function "Device_number.of_string" is used for both the validation and
the conversion.
But one issue was introduced in the validation is that the "None" value
returned from "Device_number.of_string" is considered as valid. This
causes the error "the device name is invalid".
This PR just fixes this issue. And meanwhile, a unit test is also added.
