Subject: [PATCH v5.15.y 3/3] rpmsg: Fix kfree() of static memory on setting driver_override
Date: Wed, 18 Oct 2023 13:04:34 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231018120441.2110004-3-lee@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20231018120441.2110004-1-lee@kernel.org>

From: Krzysztof Kozlowski <krzysztof.kozlowski@linaro.org>

commit 42cd402b8fd4672b692400fe5f9eecd55d2794ac upstream.

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.

Fixes: 950a7388f02b ("rpmsg: Turn name service into a stand alone driver")
Fixes: c0cdc19f84a4 ("rpmsg: Driver for user space endpoint interface")
