The patch was made against 2.6.6-rc3-mm2 and it needed the symlinks fix also.

There will be integration problems as there are multiple changes in this
area because of sysfs backing store and others. -mm has sysfs backing store
patch set and the symlinks fix, so I diffed it against clean 2.6.6. Hope you 
will not get any rejects now. Please let me know if you want to integrate it 
against any other tree.

Thanks

o The following patch cleans up sysfs_rename_dir(). It now checks the 
  return code of kobject_set_name() and propagates the error code to its
  callers. Because of this there are changes in the following two APIs. Both
  return int instead of void.

int sysfs_rename_dir(struct kobject * kobj, const char *new_name)
int kobject_rename(struct kobject * kobj, char *new_name)
