Subject: Use dev_port for the ID of a network device.
X-Git-Tag: v215~65
X-Git-Url: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/ucgi/~ianmdlvl/git?p=elogind.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=3058e017fced6d5c8712e10c8c1477421bc1e960

Use dev_port for the ID of a network device.

For network devices on the same PCI function, dev_id should not be used,
since its purpose is for IPv6 support on interfaces with the same MAC
address.

The new dev_port sysfs attribute should be used instead of dev_id.
