[PATCH] drm/i915/display: Remove kstrdup_const() and kfree_const() usage

[Christophe JAILLET]

kstrdup_const() and kfree_const() can be confusing in code built as a
module. In such a case, it does not do what one could expect from the name
of the functions.

The code is not wrong by itself, but in such a case, it is equivalent to
kstrdup() and kfree().

So, keep thinks simple and straightforward.

This reverts commit 379b63e7e682 ("drm/i915/display: Save a few bytes of
memory in intel_backlight_device_register()")
