      [PATCH] net: Ignore sysfs network device rename bugs. · 92749821
      Eric W. Biederman authored
      The generic networking code ensures that no two networking devices
      have the same name, so  there is no time except when sysfs has
      implementation bugs that device_rename when called from
      dev_change_name will fail.
      
      The current error handling for errors from device_rename in
      dev_change_name is wrong and results in an unusable and unrecoverable
      network device if device_rename is happens to return an error.
      
      This patch removes the buggy error handling.  Which confines the mess
      when device_rename hits a problem to sysfs, instead of propagating it
      the rest of the network stack.  Making linux a little more robust.
      
      Without this patch you can observe what happens when sysfs has a bug
      when CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED is not set and you attempt to rename
      a real network device to a name like (broken_parity_status, device,
      modalias, power, resource2, subsystem_vendor, class,  driver, irq,
      msi_bus, resource, subsystem, uevent, config, enable, local_cpus,
      numa_node, resource0, subsystem_device, vendor)
      
      Greg has a patch that fixes the sysfs bugs but he doesn't trust it
      for a 2.6.21 timeframe.  This patch which just ignores errors should
      be safe and it keeps the system from going completely wacky.

      [PATCH] SLAB: Mention slab name when listing corrupt objects · e94a40c5
      David Howells authored
      Mention the slab name when listing corrupt objects.  Although the function
      that released the memory is mentioned, that is frequently ambiguous as such
      functions often release several pieces of memory.
