Platform driver driver_override field should not be initialized from
const memory because the core later kfree() it. If driver_override is
manually set later through sysfs, kfree() of old value leads to:
$ echo "new_value" > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/.../driver_override

The clk-exynos5-subcmu driver uses override only for the purpose of
creating meaningful names for children devices (matching names of power
domains, e.g. DISP, MFC). The driver_override was not developed for
this purpose so just switch to default names of devices to fix the
issue.

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.
