"token-ring" is the historical name we have used in /proc/sys despite it
being abbreviated tr in the kernel.  So this fix is definitely
correct.

Sorry about that.  Given this bug and the atalk bug it looks like
I failed to QA the number to name mapping properly under net/.
I just looked at those entries again and I don't see any other
entries under net/ that have problems.

Hopefully this is the last of my silly bugs in this table.
