Subject: [PATCH] avoid problems with kobject_set_name and name with %
Date: Fri, 8 Oct 2004 11:33:33 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20041008113333.5e6e5d3e@zqx3.pdx.osdl.net> (raw)
kobject_set_name takes a printf style argument list. There are many
callers that pass only one string, if this string contained a '%' character
than bad things would happen. The fix is simple.
