The patch titled
Altix snsc: duplicate kobject fix
has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is
altix-snsc-duplicate-kobject-fix.patch
See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find
out what to do about this
from: Greg Howard <ghoward@xxxxxxx>
Fix Altix system controller (snsc) device names to include the slot number
of the blade whose associated system controller is the target of the device
interface. Including the slot number avoids a problem we're currently
having where slots within the same enclosure are attempting to create
multiple kobjects with identical names.
