    mt76: mt7915: fix hwmon temp sensor mem use-after-free
    
    [ Upstream commit 0ae3ff5684514d72357240f1033a7494c51f93ed ]
    
    Without this change, garbage is seen in the hwmon name and sensors output
    for mt7915 is garbled. It appears that the hwmon logic does not make a
    copy of the incoming string, but instead just copies a char* and expects
    it to never go away.
