[INET]: Fix netdev renaming and inet address labels

Browse Source 
When re-naming an interface, the previous secondary address
labels get lost e.g.

  $> brctl addbr foo
  $> ip addr add 192.168.0.1 dev foo
  $> ip addr add 192.168.0.2 dev foo label foo:00
  $> ip addr show dev foo | grep inet
    inet 192.168.0.1/32 scope global foo
    inet 192.168.0.2/32 scope global foo:00
  $> ip link set foo name bar
  $> ip addr show dev bar | grep inet
    inet 192.168.0.1/32 scope global bar
    inet 192.168.0.2/32 scope global bar:2

Turns out to be a simple thinko in inetdev_changename() - clearly we
want to look at the address label, rather than the device name, for
a suffix to retain.
