[PATCH] nfc: hci: Save a few bytes of memory when registering a 'nfc_llc' engine

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



nfc_llc_register() calls pass a string literal as the 'name' parameter.

So kstrdup_const() can be used instead of kfree() to avoid a memory
allocation in such cases.
