[Chilli] new Interface name

[John Paul]

Hi,
I meet a strange message with a recent distribution (opensuse 13.2), which has 
3.16 kernel and uses by the way the new interface naming convention.

# uname -a 
Linux linux-80sk 3.16.6-2-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Oct 20 13:47:22 UTC 2014 
(feb42ea) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

The ERROR message :
coova-chilli[8630]: options.c: 181: could not generate configuration 
(/var/run/chilli.8630.cfg.bin), sleeping one second

After a little research on the net, I found that trick to keep old interface 
name. "net.ifnames=0" in the grub.cfg at the end of vmlinux line.

Is there already a patch for that new naming convention ?

Thanks,
John
