kernel oops when connection name (kdbus_conn.name) not set via HELLO message but requested with attach flags KDBUS_ATTACH_CONN_NAME.
As conn.name is defined as "for debug purposes" I find it more convenient to return generic name than to strip the field from requested metadata or raise an error on request.
