Subject: [PATCH v2 00/11] Fix broken usage of driver_override (and kfree of static memory)

Hi,

This is a continuation of my old patchset from 2019. [1]
Back then, few drivers set driver_override wrong. I fixed Exynos
in a different way after discussions. QCOM NGD was not fixed
and a new user appeared - IMX SCU.

It seems "char *" in driver_override looks too consty, so we
tend to make a mistake of storing there string literals.

Changes of latest since v1 (not the old 2019 solution):
=======================================================
https://lore.kernel.org/all/708eabb1-7b35-d525-d4c3-451d4a3de84f@rasmusvillemoes.dk/
1. Add helper for setting driver_override.
2. Use the helper.

Dependencies (and stable):
==========================
1. All patches, including last three fixes, depend on first patch
   introducing the helper.
2. The last three commits - fixes - are probably not backportable
   directly, because of this dependency. I don't know how to express
   it here, since stable-kernel-rules.rst mentions only commits as
   possible dependencies.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
