Jiri Pirko 1c5cae815d net: call dev_alloc_name from register_netdevice
Force dev_alloc_name() to be called from register_netdevice() by
dev_get_valid_name(). That allows to remove multiple explicit
dev_alloc_name() calls.

The possibility to call dev_alloc_name in advance remains.

This also fixes veth creation regresion caused by
