[patch 02/28] pm_qos: clean up racy global "name" variable
From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Sat Oct 10 2009 - 11:42:27 EST
"name" is a poor name for a file-global variable. It was used in three
different functions, with no mutual exclusion. But it's just a tiny,
temporary string; let's just move it onto the stack in the functions that
need it. Also use snprintf() just in case.
