Fix missing 'kfree_const(cell->name)' when call to
nvmem_cell_info_to_nvmem_cell() in several places:
* after nvmem_cell_info_to_nvmem_cell() failed during
nvmem_add_cells()
* during nvmem_device_cell_{read,write} when cell->name is
kstrdup'ed() without calling kfree_const() at the end, but
really there is no reason to do that 'dup, because the cell
instance is allocated on the stack for some short period to be
read/write without exposing it to the caller.
So the new nvmem_cell_info_to_nvmem_cell_nodup() helper is introduced
which is used to convert cell_info -> cell without name duplication as
a lighweight version of nvmem_cell_info_to_nvmem_cell().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
