[PATCH] remove name length check in a workqueue
We have a chek in there to make sure that the name won't overflow task_struct.comm[], but it's triggering for scsi with lots of HBAs, only scsi is using single-threaded workqueues which don't append the "/%d" anyway. All too hard. Just kill the BUG_ON.
