      driver core: Convert '/' to '!' in dev_set_name() · 7143f7a1
      Roland Dreier 提交于
      Commit 3ada8b7e ("block: struct device - replace bus_id with dev_name(),
      dev_set_name()") deleted the code in register_disk() that changed a '/'
      to a '!' in the device name when registering a disk, but dev_set_name()
      does not perform this conversion.
      
      This leads to amusing problems with disks that have '/' in their names:
      for example a failure to boot with the root partition on a cciss device,
      even though the kernel says it knows about the root device:
      
          VFS: Cannot open root device "cciss/c0d0p6" or unknown-block(0,0)
          Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available partitions:
          6800        71652960 cciss/c0d0 driver: cciss
            6802               1 cciss/c0d0p2
            6805         2931831 cciss/c0d0p5
            6806        34354908 cciss/c0d0p6
          6810        71652960 cciss/c0d1 driver: cciss
      
      Fix this by adding code to change '/' to '!' in dev_set_name() to handle
      this until dev_set_name() is converted to use kobject_set_name().
