I'm looking at it and trying to see if I'm missing something, but
AFAIK the whole concept of devm_* is to leave out the resource
management part.

devm_kstrdup_const() will internally call devm_kstrdup() for strings
that are not in .rodata and once the device is detached, the string
will be freed (or not if it's in .rodata).
