This could only be called either from the set_label() ioctl, in which case
old_label could be NULL or a pointer to a string obtained from strdup(); or from
panthor_gem_kernel_bo_set_label(). In the latter case, it could only ever be
NULL, since we don't reassign kernel BO labels, so it'd be safe too.

However I do agree that it's not consistent, and then in the future perhaps
relabelling kernel BO's might be justified, so I'll change it to kfree_const().

Kernel and UM-exposed BO's should never experience cross-labelling, so in theory
this scenario ought to be impossible. The only way panthor_gem_kernel_bo_set_label()
might take NULL in the 'label' argument is that someone called panthor_kernel_bo_create()
with NULL for its name 'argument'.

I think as a defensive check, I could do something as follows

void
panthor_gem_kernel_bo_set_label(struct panthor_kernel_bo *bo, const char *label)
{
	const char *str;

	/* We should never attempt labelling a UM-exposed GEM object */
	if (drm_WARN_ON(bo->obj->dev, &bo->obj->handle_count > 0))
		return;

	if (!label)
		return;

       [...]
}
