The disable_acs_redir parameter stores a pointer to the string passed to
pci_setup(). However, the string passed to PCI setup is actually a
temporary copy allocated in static __initdata memory. After init, once
the memory is freed, it is no longer valid to reference this pointer.

This bug was noticed in v5.0-rc1 after a change in commit c5eb1190074c
("PCI / PM: Allow runtime PM without callback functions") caused
pci_disable_acs_redir() to be called during shutdown which manifested
as an unable to handle kernel paging request at:

It was also likely possible to trigger this bug when hotplugging PCI
devices.

To fix this, instead of storing a pointer, we use kstrdup to copy the
disable_acs_redir_param to its own buffer which will never be freed.
