Use kobject_set_name() for increased portability.
As of 2.6.25 kobj->k_name was replaced with kobj->name. Some distros such as RHEL5 (2.6.18) add a patch to prevent this from being a problem but other older distros such as SLES10 (2.6.16) have not. To avoid the whole issue I'm updating the code to use kobject_set_name() which does what I want and has existed all the way back to 2.6.11.
