This series adds explicit checks for user-supplied interface names to
make sure their length fits Linux's requirements.

The first two patches simplify interface name parsing in some places -
these are side-effects of working on the actual implementation provided
in patch three.

Changes since v1:
- Patches 1 and 2 introduced.
- Changes to patch 3 are listed in there.

Phil Sutter (3):
  ip{6,}tunnel: Avoid copying user-supplied interface name around
  tc: flower: No need to cache indev arg
  Check user supplied interface name lengths

I like the idea, and checking arguments is good.  
Cool!
I was thinking something like:
