Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 5/7] mm: provide shrinkers with names

Based on pr_warn below, does it make sense to have something like:
   register_shrinker(&conf->shrinker, "md-%s", mdname(mddev))

use kvasprintf_const() (and kfree_const() elsewhere) to simplify code 
and take advantage of kstrdup_const() in most cases?

same as above.

Missing error handling and freeing of shrinker->name as done in 
prealloc_shrinker()?
