Commit f599c64fdf7d ("xen-netfront: Fix race between device setup and
open") changed the initialization order: xennet_create_queues() now
happens before we do register_netdev() so using netdev->name in
xennet_init_queue() is incorrect, we end up with the following in
/proc/interrupts:
60: 139 0 xen-dyn -event eth%d-q0-tx
61: 265 0 xen-dyn -event eth%d-q0-rx
62: 234 0 xen-dyn -event eth%d-q1-tx
63: 1 0 xen-dyn -event eth%d-q1-rx
and this looks ugly. Actually, using early netdev name (even when it's
already set) is also not ideal: nowadays we tend to rename eth devices
and queue name may end up not corresponding to the netdev name.
Use nodename from xenbus device for queue naming: this can't change in VM's
lifetime. Now /proc/interrupts looks like
62: 202 0 xen-dyn -event device/vif/0-q0-tx
63: 317 0 xen-dyn -event device/vif/0-q0-rx
64: 262 0 xen-dyn -event device/vif/0-q1-tx
65: 17 0 xen-dyn -event device/vif/0-q1-rx
