The current name field used in the remoteproc structure is simply
a pointer to a name field supplied during the rproc_alloc() call.
The pointer passed in by remoteproc drivers during registration is
typically a dev_name pointer, but it is possible that the pointer
will no longer remain valid if the devices themselves were created
at runtime like in the case of of_platform_populate(), and were
deleted upon any failures within the respective remoteproc driver
probe function.

So, allocate and maintain a local copy for this name field to
keep it agnostic of the logic used in the remoteproc drivers.

Let's use kstrdup_const() instead here (and kfree_const() instead of
kfree()), so that the cases where we are passed a constant we won't
create a duplicate on the heap.

And the "name" in struct rproc can remain const.

Perhaps we can rearrange the hunks here slightly and get to a point
where we can rely on the release function earlier?

Agreed, that's better functions to use for this.

Not sure I understand. I don't see any release function, all failure
paths in rproc_alloc() directly unwind the previous operations. You mean
move this to before the alloc for rproc structure, something similar to
what we are doing with firmware?

Look at the failure for ida_simple_get(), there we're past the setup of
rproc->dev.type, so the rproc_type->release function will be invoked as
we call put_device().

So if you move the initialization of rproc->dev up right after the
allocation of rproc we should be able to rely on that to clean up all
these for us.

Yeah ok. That's cleanup though, and probably a patch of its own, and not
directly related to the subject of this patch. Yeah, I can rework this
patch to sit on top of that cleanup patch.
