BTW, for example, if we do
# ip link set eth9 name foobar
if_indextoname() will return foobar.
we, however, will see /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/eth9 instead of
/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/foobar. This is not good.
Is this just a bug not having NETDEV_CHANGENAME handler to
rename it?
I think this is a bug, yes.
