Subject: [PATCH] ip: allow using a device "help" (or a prefix thereof)
Date: Fri, 18 Sep 2015 10:23:45 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <55FBCA11.7070604@kristov.de> (raw)

Device names that match "help" or a prefix thereof should be allowed anywhere
a device name can be used. Note that a suitable keyword ("dev" or "name", the
latter for "ip tunnel") has to be used in these cases to resolve ambiguities.
