net: core: check dev_valid_name in __dev_alloc_name We currently only exclude non-sysfs-friendly names via dev_get_valid_name; there doesn't seem to be a reason to allow such names when we're called via dev_alloc_name. This does duplicate the dev_valid_name check in the dev_get_valid_name() case; we'll fix that shortly. Signed-off-by: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@rasmusvillemoes.dk> Signed-off-by: David S.
