__dev_alloc_name(), when supplied with a name containing '%d',
will search for the first available device number to generate a
unique device name.
Since commit ff92741270 ("net:
introduce name_node struct to be used in hashlist") network
devices may have alternate names. __dev_alloc_name() does take
these alternate names into account, possibly generating a name
that is already taken and failing with -ENFILE as a result.
This demonstrates the bug:
# rmmod dummy 2>/dev/null
# ip link property add dev lo altname dummy0
# modprobe dummy numdummies=1
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'dummy': Too many open files in system
Instead of creating a device named dummy1, modprobe fails.
Fix this by checking all the names in the d->name_node list, not just d->name.
