Some *thermal_cooling_device_register() calls pass a string literal as the
'type' parameter.

So kstrdup_const() can be used instead of kfree() to avoid a memory

I guess you mean kstrdup()?

Sure.
Stupid cut'n'paste typo. Thx for catching it.

Should I resend, or can it be fixed if/when the patch is applied?

CJ


allocation in such cases.
