[PATCH v4 3/4] devres: provide devm_kstrdup_const()

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

Provide a resource managed version of kstrdup_const(). This variant
internally calls devm_kstrdup() on pointers that are outside of
.rodata section and returns the string as is otherwise.

Also provide a corresponding version of devm_kfree().
