I met below error during boot with i915 builtin if pass
"i915.mitigations=off":
[    0.015589] Booting kernel: `off' invalid for parameter `i915.mitigations'

The reason is slab subsystem isn't ready at that time, so kstrdup()
returns NULL. Fix this issue by using stack var instead of kstrdup().

Fixes: 984cadea032b ("drm/i915: Allow the sysadmin to override security mitigations")
