Subject: [linux-next][PATCH 1/1] gpio: Delete excess allocated label memory

The changes in commit 1f2bcb8c8ccd ("gpio: protect the
descriptor label with SRCU"), desc_set_label has already
allocated memory space for the label, so there is no need
to allocate it again. otherwise memory leaks will be
introduced.

I tried the following modifications, which did not fix the problem,

I'm a little confused. In the gpiod_request_commit() function, if label
is true, we allocate space kstrdup_const() for it, but desc_set_label()
will still be called. If label is true, space will be allocated to it
again, desc-> label will be pointed to the place where new is allocated,

thanks
