Subject: [PATCH] regmap: debugfs: potentially duplicate the name string of the config

In function regmap_debugfs_init the name of the regmap_config is assigned
in a node of regmap_debugfs_early_list to be used later after regmap
is initialized. It is unknown how and when the name is allocated and freed.
Therefore the name should be copied to the node using 'kstrdup_const'.
This fixes an error
"debugfs: Directory 'dummy-' with parent 'regmap' already present!"
where the name was freed in function of_syscon_register before
it was accessed.

Fixes: a52eaeb1898bc (regmap: debugfs: Fix a boot time crash with early regmap init)
