From e4b91c484611da385e34ff0f8bb2744ae2c735b7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jay Vosburgh Date: Fri, 19 Jan 2007 18:15:31 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] bonding: fix device name allocation error The code to select names for the bonding interfaces was, for the non-sysfs creation case, always using a hard-coded set of bond0, bond1, etc, up to max_bonds. This caused conflicts for the second or subsequent loads of the module. Changed the code to obtain device names from dev_alloc_name().
