4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Liam Girdwood <liam.r.girdwood@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 267e2c6fd7ca3d4076d20f9d52d49dc91addfe9d upstream. Fix the topology kcontrol string handling so that string pointer references are strdup()ed instead of being copied. This fixes issues with kcontrol templates on the stack or ones that are freed. Remember and free the strings too when topology is unloaded.
