I know only root can set module parameters, but having one
that contains a string used as a printf format seems
dangerous at best.

Isn't it best to let userspace rename the interfaces later on?
Yeah.  I think you're right.
Sorry, but I don't understand if the code needs to be improved or not.
Is the code shown by Dan not correct?
We should remove the ifname[] array and the module option completely.
Thanks for the clarification.

Regards,
Len
