We went through most of the things we shipped back when biosdevname was
first introduced and filed a *lot* of bugs to get all those cases fixed,
so we *should* be much better there. (Can't speak to third-party software,
obviously).

If any of those fixes involved merely adding the biosdevname namespaces to
whitelists instead of properly getting device names, well, I'm not
*supposed* to promote an attitude of violence, but...
