Replace kstrdup() with devm_kstrdup() to avoid memory leak and
add check for the return value of the devm_kstrdup() to avoid
NULL pointer dereference

Again, thanks for finding and trying to fix this but you did not even compile
test this.  :-(

/**     
 * devm_kstrdup - Allocate resource managed space and
 *                copy an existing string into that.
 * @dev: Device to allocate memory for
 * @s: the string to duplicate
 * @gfp: the GFP mask used in the devm_kmalloc() call when
 *       allocating memory
 * RETURNS:
 * Pointer to allocated string on success, NULL on failure.
 */     
char *devm_kstrdup(struct device *dev, const char *s, gfp_t gfp)
                   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
                   ??????????????????
