[PATCH] regmap: potentially duplicate the name string stored in regmap

From: Bartosz Golaszewski
Date: Wed Dec 13 2017 - 11:25:31 EST


Currently we just copy over the pointer passed to regmap_init() in
the regmap config struct. To be on the safe side: duplicate the string
with kstrdup_const() so that if an unaware user passes an address to
a stack-allocated buffer, we won't crash.
