[PATCH] misc: kgdbts: Fix restrict error

From: Laura Abbott
Date: Mon Sep 10 2018 - 19:05:20 EST


kgdbts current fails when compiled with restrict:

drivers/misc/kgdbts.c: In function âconfigure_kgdbtsâ:
drivers/misc/kgdbts.c:1070:2: error: âstrcpyâ source argument is the same as destination [-Werror=restrict]
strcpy(config, opt);
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

As the error says, config is being used in both the source and destination.
Refactor the code to only do the copy when needed.
