Hi Dave,

I noticed the patch below isn't in this (yet)
did it slip through or does it still need more work?



From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com>
Subject: Print the module name as part of the watchdog message

As suggested by Dave:

This patch adds a function to get the driver name from a struct net_device,
and consequently uses this in the watchdog timeout handler to print as 
part of the message.
