Minor update, printk buffer was too short during tests so I have not
catched everything. In fact the patchset saves 3260 duplications. Below
stats per kstrdup_const caller:
   2260 __kernfs_new_node+0x28/0xc4
    631 clk_register+0xc8/0x1b8
    318 clk_register+0x34/0x1b8
     51 kmem_cache_create+0x7c/0x1c8
