The class symlinks in sysfs don't properly handle changing device names. To demonstrate, rename your network device from eth0 to eth1. Your pci (or usb, or whatever) device will still have a 'net:eth0' link, except now it points to /sys/class/net/eth1. The attached patch makes sure the class symlink name changes when the class device name changes. It isn't 100% correct, it should be using sysfs_rename_link. Unfortunately, sysfs_rename_link doesn't exist.
