Hi Liu and Rich,

How about saving "dev->ifname" while processing reset_owner like
"dev->device_fh"?
It was only set when connection is established.
But so far, it will be cleared when reset_owner message comes.
Probably it should be cleared when unix domain socket connection is closed.

Thanks,
Tetsuya
