Somewhen between 6.10 and 6.11 the driver started to crash on my
MacBookPro14,3. The property doesn't exist and 'tmp' remains
uninitialized, so we pass a random pointer to devm_kstrdup().

v2: Don't assign err, inline of_property_read_string_index into the if
statement.

The crash I am getting looks like this:
