Subject: [PATCH 01/10] kconfig: remove 'const' from the return type of sym_escape_string_value()
Date: Fri,  1 Oct 2021 14:32:44 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211001053253.1223316-1-masahiroy@kernel.org> (raw)

sym_escape_string_value() returns a malloc'ed memory, but as
(const char *). So, it must be casted to (void *) when it is free'd.
This is odd.

The return type of sym_escape_string_value() should be (char *).

I exploited that free(NULL) has no effect.
