Subject: lib/dynamic_debug.c: use kstrdup_const
X-Git-Tag: KARO-TX6UL-2015-11-03~14^2~66
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c0aa3930ed5e9987cd82a055182d94d8f53b83f6;p=karo-tx-linux.git

lib/dynamic_debug.c: use kstrdup_const

Using kstrdup_const, thus reusing .rodata when possible, saves around 2 kB
of runtime memory on my laptop/.config combination.
