For built-in modules, we're already reusing the passed-in string via
kstrdup_const().  But for actual modules (i.e.  when we're called from
dynamic_debug_setup in module.c), the passed-in string (which points at
the name[] array inside struct module) is also guaranteed to live at
least as long as the struct ddebug_table, since free_module() calls
ddebug_remove_module().

History
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.
