[PATCH v2] driver core: Fix device link device name collision - Linux-stable-mirror

7 Jan 2021

The device link device's name was of the form:
<supplier-dev-name>--<consumer-dev-name>
This can cause name collision as reported here [1] as device names are
not globally unique. Since device names have to be unique within the
bus/class, add the bus/class name as a prefix to the device names used to
construct the device link device name.
So the devuce link device's name will be of the form:
<supplier-bus-name>:<supplier-dev-name>--<consumer-bus-name>:<consumer-dev-name>

Fixes: 287905e68dd2 ("driver core: Expose device link details in sysfs")
