[PATCH 3/3] HID: avoid runtime call to strlen

[Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@google.com>]

While looking into a CONFIG_FORTIFY=y related bug, I noticed that
hid_allocate calls strlen() on a local C string variable. This variable
can only have literal string values. There is no benefit to having
FORTIFY have this be a checked strlen call, because these are literal
values.  By calling strlen() explicitly in the branches of a switch, the
compiler can evaluate strlen("literal value") at compile time, rather
than at runtime.
