commit814596495dupstream. wiphy names were recently limited to 128 bytes by commita7cfebcb75("cfg80211: limit wiphy names to 128 bytes"). As it turns out though, this isn't sufficient because dev_vprintk_emit() needs the syslog header string "SUBSYSTEM=ieee80211\0DEVICE=+ieee80211:$devname" to fit into 128 bytes. This triggered the "device/subsystem name too long" WARN when the device name was >= 90 bytes. As before, this was reproduced by syzbot by sending an HWSIM_CMD_NEW_RADIO command to the MAC80211_HWSIM generic netlink family. Fix it by further limiting wiphy names to 64 bytes.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
