This series adds explicit checks for user-supplied interface names to make sure their length fits Linux's requirements.
The first two patches simplify interface name parsing in some places - these are side-effects of working on the actual implementation provided in patch three. Changes since v1: - Patches 1 and 2 introduced. - Changes to patch 3 are listed in there.
