Shove a dev_name() on the front if we get a collision? I have to say I've never cared, the debugfs isn't that important so it doesn't matter too much if it fails.
Sure, but, again, I am getting lots and lots of those error messages. I probably would not care either (and probably not even have noticed) if not for those messages.
Want me to submit a patch with the dev_name solution ?
Yes, please.
Turns out that is already supposed to happen if the function creating the entry knows about the device. I guess this explains why others don't see the problem. We'll have to find out what is going on.
