[PATCH v2 1/4] remoteproc: Keep local copy of firmware name

From: Matt Redfearn
Date: Mon Oct 17 2016 - 11:52:29 EST


Storage of the firmware name was inconsistent, either storing a pointer
to a name stored with unknown ownership, or a variable length tacked
onto the end of the struct proc allocated in rproc_alloc.

In preparation for allowing the firmware of an already allocated struct
rproc to be changed, instead always keep a locally maintained copy of
the firmware name.

Changes in v2:
Use a kmalloc'd copy of the firmware name instead of having a fixed
length array in struct rproc
