Adding more than 10 pci-endpoint-test devices results in "kobject_add_internal failed for pci-endpoint-test.1 with -EEXIST, don't try to register things with the same name in the same directory". This is because commit2c156ac71c("misc: Add host side PCI driver for PCI test function device") limited the length of the "name" to 20 characters. Change the length of the name to 24 in order to support upto 10000 pci-endpoint-test devices.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
