When listing processes on a system with SOFT/HARD_IRQ enabled, the name of the ethernet device is [irq/eth%d] (instead of [irq/eth0] for example).

This patch call the request_irq function after having initialized the name of the device.

The string is modified in register_netdev() so why don't you deal 
with IRQ just after it? I would have placed the code snippet 
before macb_mii_init(): what do you think about this?
