I'm seeing the same when removing/inserting network drivers frequently, ixgbe does
the same thing: (git://davem/net-2.6.24)
ixgbe 0000:01:00.0: (PCI Express:2.5Gb/s:Width x8) 00:1a:64:3b:81:c3
ixgbe 0000:01:00.0: MAC: 0, PHY: 0, PBA No: d95854-003
ixgbe 0000:01:00.0: Intel(R) 10 Gigabit Network Connection
net eth2: device_rename: sysfs_create_symlink failed (-17)
but I can't make it throw a stack trace.
perhaps one of the sysfs knowledgeable people can take a look at this. We might be
doing something wrong in e1000e / ixgbe at setup time, but I have no idea what.

To reach this path you need to run the equivalent of:
ip link set eth0 name eth1
I have seen this a bit and my memory is that the error is generally
harmless. It is trying to create a symlink with the same name as the
directory or something like that. Which makes with one setting of
CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED but not the other.
So I don't believe this is a driver bug, and I suspect the renames
come from using something like /etc/mactab which forces ethernet
devices with specific mac addresses to specific ethernet device
names.
With whatever is sitting in my development tree I'm pretty certain
this error isn't present. I don't recall if I did anything specific
to fix this though. In particular I don't recall if this still
happens with gregkh's queued sysfs patches applied.

I think the report belongs to udev.
It tries to rename network devices even if they already
have the name it desires.
