It would be nicer to replace the entire hand-made name

Actually, I thought the same, but fixing % in names looks like a
BUG-fix for 2.6.25, while removing the hand-made name allocation
looks like an enhancement for 2.6.26. No?
Well, its so closely related that I guess it would still look
like a bugfix :) But changing this in 2.6.26 is also fine of
course, your patch just reminded me since I wanted to change
this for a long time and repeatedly forgot about it again.
Ok, point taken ;) Here's the 2nd patch that does so. If David
decides it can go to 2.6.25, that would be good, otherwise this
patch will fit the 2.6.26 as well.
Changelog:
Use the added dev_alloc_name() call to create tunnel device name,
rather than iterate in a hand-made loop with an artificial limit.
Thanks Patrick for noticing this.
