In kobject_get_path(), if kobj->name is changed between calls
get_kobj_path_length() and fill_kobj_path() and the length becomes
longer, then fill_kobj_path() will have an out-of-bounds bug.
The actual current problem occurs when the ixgbe probe.
In ixgbe_mii_bus_init(), if the length of netdev->dev.kobj.name
length becomes longer, out-of-bounds will occur.

This reproducer triggers that bug:
while:
do
rmmod ixgbe
sleep 0.5
modprobe ixgbe
sleep 0.5
When calling fill_kobj_path() to fill path, if the name length of
kobj becomes longer, return failure and retry. This fixes the problem.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
