From cd2315d471f45a36cb1329722920d89cd6d3d11f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Benjamin Fair Date: Fri, 6 Jul 2018 11:16:03 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] ipmi: kcs_bmc: don't change device name kcs_bmc_alloc(...) calls dev_set_name(...) which is incorrect as most bus driver frameworks, platform_driver in particular, assume that they are able to set the device name themselves.
