Add NOFAIL check for the strdup call, since the function
allocates memory and can return NULL. All strdup calls in
modpost are checked with NOFAIL.

This is correct, but I will put it off
because otherwise if would cause a conflict against this patch:

https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1138151/

That patch is adding NOFAIL().
