Summary

linuxkpi: Ignore NULLs passed to string parameter of kstr(n)dup

That is what Linux does. It fixes (or hides?) following panic sporadically occurring on my "HD Graphics 530" with drm-kmod-5.3:

Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode
cpuid = 6; apic id = 06
fault virtual address = 0x0
fault code = supervisor read data, page not present
instruction pointer = 0x20:0xffffffff806e19cf
stack pointer = 0x28:0xfffffe00b1872440
frame pointer = 0x28:0xfffffe00b1872440
code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b

= DPL 0, pres 1, long 1, def32 0, gran 1

processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0
current process = 0 (linuxkpi_long_wq_7)
trap number = 12

panic: page fault
cpuid = 6
time = 1594559309

Test Plan

Run drm-kmod-5.3 for several days w/o the panic.

looks good to me... one might quibble over the extra newline after the if, but it's fine either way imho.

This revision is now accepted and ready to land.Jul 13 2020, 11:08 PM

Don't forget to MFC to 11 and 12 after 1 week!
