[PATCH] Driver core: Make block devices create the proper symlink name
Block devices need to add the block device name to the symlink they put in the device directory, otherwise multiple symlinks of the same name can be created. This matches the class system, which works the same way, we just forgot to convert block at the same time. Cc: Pete Zaitcev <zaitcev@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
