I had enabled SLAB debugging and  tested this patch by modifying few
existing sysfs entries and
newly created entries.

[sasikantha@...alhost linux-2.6]$ cat .config | grep SLAB
CONFIG_SLAB=y
CONFIG_SLABINFO=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB_LEAK=y
[sasikantha@...alhost linux-2.6]$

Did not face any issues while renaming.

Please let me know if there is any specific scenario that needs to be tested.

Thanks
Sasi
