RE: [PATCH v6 12/12] rpmsg: Fix kfree() of static memory on setting driver_override
Hi Krzysztof Kozlowski,
Thanks for the patch.
Subject: [PATCH v6 12/12] rpmsg: Fix kfree() of static memory on setting driver_override
The driver_override field from platform driver should not be initialized from static memory (string literal) because the core later kfree() it, for example when driver_override is set via sysfs.
Use dedicated helper to set driver_override properly.

It's possible. I kept the pattern of duplicating the string literal because original code had it, but I don't mind to change it. In the output assembler that might be additional instruction - need to dereference the rpdev pointer - but that does not matter much.
Best regards, Krzysztof

OK, it's a suggestion as same string constant duplicated thrice,
Any change in this string constant in future will need changes in 3 places , by using "rpdev->id.name", the change is limited to 1 place.
