From 36ce6dad6e3cb3f050ed41e0beac0070d2062b25 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cornelia Huck Date: Tue, 10 Jun 2008 11:09:08 +0200 Subject: driver core: Suppress sysfs warnings for device_rename(). driver core: Suppress sysfs warnings for device_rename(). Renaming network devices to an already existing name is not something we want sysfs to print a scary warning for, since the callers can deal with this correctly. So let's introduce sysfs_create_link_nowarn() which gets rid of the common warning.
