Instead of truncating the device name when it exceeds IFNAMSIZ length; let device_set_ifname return an error code and do not add the device to the device list. This avoids possible issues with device names becoming identical due the truncation and as a result unexpected behavior. Further let the different device types gracefully handle the error code returned by device_init Signed-off-by:
