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

There is a kfree() call in nfc_llc_exit() that looks suspiciously
like it may also free the name.
Hi,
you are right.
Should we have something like:
void nfc_llc_exit(void)
{
struct nfc_llc_engine *llc_engine, *n;
list_for_each_entry_safe(llc_engine, n, &llc_engines, entry)
nfc_llc_unregister(&llc_engine->name);
}
It would be slower, but it would reduce code duplication as well.
This is just an _exit() function, so it shouldn't be called that often
anyway, if called at all.
Or, add another function with the list_del()+kfree_const()+kfree(), that
would be called from nfc_llc_exit() and nfc_llc_unregister(), to have
the best of the 2 worlds?
