[PATCH v2] can: rename LED trigger name on netdev renames

[Fabio Baltieri <fabio.baltieri@gmail.com>]

From: Kurt Van Dijck <kurt.van.dijck@eia.be>

The LED trigger name for CAN devices is based on the initial
CAN device name, but does never change. The LED trigger name
is not guaranteed to be unique in case of hotplugging CAN devices.

This patch tries to address this problem by modifying the
LED trigger name according to the CAN device name when
the latter changes.

This patch is meant as illustration only.
In case of VCAN device rename, a segmentation fault will occur.

v1 - Kurt Van Dijck
v2 - Fabio Baltieri
- remove rename blocking if trigger is bound
- use led-subsystem function for the actual rename (still WiP)
- call init/exit functions from dev.c

Hi Kurt,

I like the can_priv_safe() idea, so I allowed myself to write a v2 of your
patch (hope you are ok with that - let me know if you think I should just post
a diff) to address the other issues I found and bring back the discussion.

So, that's what I changed:

- remove device rename blocking if trigger is bound: I don't think it's needed
  as we can just rename the trigger and everyone should be happy.  Besides that
  I don't like the idea of using list lock outside led-triggers.

- use led_trigger_rename_static to rename the LED: the actual implementation is
  a locked strcpy to prevent races, I just posted the patch in the linux-leds
  mailing list, so this patch depends on wether that would be accepted.
  Link: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=134720454513067&w=2

- call init/exit functions from dev.c: that fixes builds as a module.  I also
  renamed functions to can_led_notifier_{init,exit} to avoid confusion with
  devm_can_led_init.

- left a TODO marker for you for a candev-safe v3 version :-)

As this is starting to look like a jam of patches, I pushed my working branch,
based upon Marc's can-next/led-trigger on:

git://github.com/fabiobaltieri/linux.git can-leds-devel

Let me know what you think of it.

Fabio
