Yes.

@@ -730,7 +731,11 @@ int dev_change_name(struct net_device *d
        else if (__dev_get_by_name(newname))
                return -EEXIST;
        else
+       {

-> a cleanup patch may be avoided if the "{" follows the "else"

+               if (strncmp(newname, dev->name, IFNAMSIZ))
+                       printk(KERN_INFO "%s renamed to %s\n", dev->name, 
newname);

-> I would rather do a quick return if (!strncmp(...)) (personnal taste).
