I found this in the 2.6.24 changelog, don't know if it's related:

commit b267b179648e46ea8e2a44f7314a23eb6aee1d6c
Author: Eric W. Biederman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

    [NET]: Factor out __dev_alloc_name from dev_alloc_name
    
    When forcibly changing the network namespace of a device
    I need something that can generate a name for the device
    in the new namespace without overwriting the old name.
    
    __dev_alloc_name provides me that functionality.
