Subject: selftest: net: fix typo in altname test
From: Andrea Claudi <aclaudi@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 1b704b27beb11ce147d64b21c914e57afbfb5656 upstream.
If altname deletion of the short alternative name fails, the error
message printed is: "Failed to add short alternative name".
This is obviously a typo, as we are testing altname deletion.
Fix this using a proper error message.
