[<gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    iio: core: check return value when calling dev_set_name()

to my char-misc git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git
in the char-misc-next branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree

Subject: iio: core: check return value when calling dev_set_name()

I got a null-ptr-deref report when doing fault injection test:

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
RIP: 0010:strlen+0x0/0x20
Call Trace:
 start_creating+0x199/0x2f0
 debugfs_create_dir+0x25/0x430
 __iio_device_register+0x4da/0x1b40 [industrialio]
 __devm_iio_device_register+0x22/0x80 [industrialio]
 max1027_probe+0x639/0x860 [max1027]
 spi_probe+0x183/0x210
 really_probe+0x285/0xc30

If dev_set_name() fails, the dev_name() is null, check the return
value of dev_set_name() to avoid the null-ptr-deref.
