[PATCH v6 0/4] devres: provide and use devm_kstrdup_const()

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

This series implements devm_kstrdup_const() together with some
prerequisite changes and uses it in tegra-hsp driver.

v1 -> v2:
- fixed the changelog in the patch implementing devm_kstrdup_const()
- fixed the kernel doc
- moved is_kernel_rodata() to asm-generic/sections.h
- fixed constness

v2 -> v3:
- rebased on top of 4.19-rc5 as there were some conflicts in the
  pmc-atom driver
- collected Reviewed-by tags

v3 -> v4:
- Andy NAK'ed patch 4/4 so I added a different example
- collected more tags

v4 -> v5:
- instead of providing devm_kfree_const(), make devm_kfree() check if
  given pointer is not in .rodata and act accordingly

v5 -> v6:
- fixed the commit message in patch 2/4 (s/devm_kfree_const/devm_kfree/)
- collected even more tags

[PATCH v6 1/4] devres: constify p in devm_kfree()

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

Make devm_kfree() signature uniform with that of kfree(). To avoid
compiler warnings: cast p to (void *) when calling devres_destroy().

[PATCH v6 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.

Make devm_kfree() check if the passed pointer doesn't point to .rodata
and if so - don't actually destroy the resource.

[PATCH v6 4/4] mailbox: tegra-hsp: use devm_kstrdup_const()

[Bartosz Golaszewski]

Use devm_kstrdup_const() in the tegra-hsp driver. This mostly serves as
an example of how to use this new routine to shrink driver code.

Also use devm_kzalloc() instead of regular kzalloc() to get shrink the
driver even more.

Doorbell objects are only removed in the driver's remove callback so
it's safe to convert all memory allocations to devres.

I think that the three first patches of this series are ready to be
picked up. The last one can wait until the next release cycle. Out of
those three two are devres patches and one is mm. Do you think this
should go through your tree?
