SubjectApplied "regulator: Mark supply_name const and duplicate it as such" to the regulator tree
The patch

regulator: Mark supply_name const and duplicate it as such

has been applied to the regulator tree at

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/regulator.git

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark

Subject: [PATCH] regulator: Mark supply_name const and duplicate it as such

The supply_name member of struct regulator can be const as we
don't change it in the regulator core. Furthermore, when we copy
the supply name we can use kstrdup_const() here to avoid a copy
if the name is in the ro data section.
