Don't populate the array prop on the stack but instead make it static.
Makes the object code smaller by 30 bytes:

Before:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  80138	  15382	    576	  96096	  17760	drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/pcie/trans.o

After:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  79948	  15542	    576	  96066	  17742	drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/pcie/trans.o

(gcc version 8.2.0 x86_64)

Thanks! I pushed this to our internal tree and it will reach upstream
following our normal process.

No objection from me, care to make it a real patch so that I can apply
it after 4.18-rc1 is out?

Now what is happening is that prop is being reloaded
each invocation with the constant addresses of the strings.

It seems the prototype and function for kobject_uevent_env
should change as well to avoid this.

Perhaps this should become:

Don't populate the read-only array 'prop' on the stack but
instead make it static. Makes the object code smaller by 20 bytes:

Before:
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename

After:

  71479   14774     576   86829   1532d trans.o
