Subject: [PATCH 4/4] nvmem: core: fix memory abort in cleanup path

From: Bitan Biswas <bbiswas@...dia.com>

nvmem_cell_info_to_nvmem_cell implementation has static
allocation of name. nvmem_add_cells_from_of() call may
return error and kfree name results in memory abort. Use
kstrdup_const() and kfree_const calls for name alloc and free.
