Subject: [PATCH 2/6] sysfs: Wrap __compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj
function to change the symlink name
References: bsc#1160018 ltc#182902 jsc#SLE-9099
Patch-mainline: v5.7-rc1
Git-commit: 9255782f70614c89b1a15ec6997c4b72ce9e630a
The __compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj function creates a symlink
to a kobject but doesn't provide an option to change the symlink file
name.
This patch adds a wrapper function compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj
that extends the __compat_only_sysfs_link_entry_to_kobj functionality
which allows function caller to customize the symlink name.
