[patch 11/22] Fix block device symlink name

[Greg KH <gregkh@suse.de>]

-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au>

As noted further on the this file, some block devices have a / in their
name, so fix the "block:..." symlink name the same as the /sys/block name.
