mt76: mt7915: fix hwmon temp sensor mem use-after-free
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
[ Upstream commit 0ae3ff5 ]

Without this change, garbage is seen in the hwmon name and sensors output
for mt7915 is garbled. It appears that the hwmon logic does not make a
copy of the incoming string, but instead just copies a char* and expects
it to never go away.
