| |
from: Greg Howard <ghoward@sgi.com>
This patch fixes Altix system controller (snsc) device names to include the slot number of the blade whose associated system controller is the target of the device interface. Including the slot number avoids a problem we're currently having where slots within the same enclosure are attempting to create multiple kobjects with identical names.
The patch should apply cleanly to 2.6.17.
