Thank you Arend for testing.

What you see is some issue with kfree I do not understand. Please take
a look at:
"Crash with kfree(null) on MacBook? kobject_set_name_vargs"
https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/4/10/71

When I call dev_set_name result with new name for device, internal
implementation performs "kfree" on *old name*. Of course there was not
old name, so kfree is being called on * char pointing to NULL. On my
device it does not crash, but on yours and on Andy's it does.

We got suggestion to enable SLUB/SLAB debugging. Andy didn't try it
yet. Could you spend a moment trying to debug this?
