[PATCH v7 11/33] net: af_netrom - set name assign type

From: Tom Gundersen <hidden>
Date: 2014-07-10 08:31:50
Also in: linux-hams, lkml
Subsystem: networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

A given number of indistinguishable interfaces are allocated at init time, so
consider their names predictable.
