ipip, sit: copy parms.name after register_netdevice 2011-12-12T23:50:51+00:00 Ted Feng artisdom@gmail.com 2011-12-08T00:46:21+00:00 72b36015ba43a3cca5303f5534d2c3e1899eae29 Same fix as 731abb9cb2 for ipip and sit tunnel. Commit 1c5cae815d removed an explicit call to dev_alloc_name in ipip_tunnel_locate and ipip6_tunnel_locate, because register_netdevice will now create a valid name, however the tunnel keeps a copy of the name in the private parms structure. Fix this by copying the name back after register_netdevice has successfully returned.
