  I will do it.

  it seems "it is not suitable to send any issues which only relative
with Red Hat to linux-*@vger.kernel.org".

1) I agree with your result.

2) But for the "reason", I have my opinions:
   A) %.8s :  for limitation of output string length.
   B) %8s  :  for width of output string length (but not limit 8).
   C) %8.8s:  both limitation and width.

3) for rt->rt6i_dev->name:
   A) original %8s is not a bug for name len is more than 8 (can still
be outputted correctly)
   B) it is only effect with name len is less than 8 (it will fill some
' ' before the name)
   C) this is the reason why I call it "beautiful", not a bug.
