In kobject_get_path(), if kobj->name is changed between calls

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.

kobj->name = name;
/* name length becomes
* longer
*/
fill_kobj_path /* kobj path length is
* longer than path,
* resulting in out of
* bounds when filling path
*/

This is the kasan report:

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.

Thanks for the fix.

I wonder if there is no case we end up with infinite loop
(fill_kobj_path always returning error). Do You know?
It should only be possible to have an infinite loop if name or parent keeps changing. The probability of this is extremely low.
If necessary, change it to only retry 3 times?
return path;
