3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Ezequiel Garcia <[email protected]> commit c854d8883fec59332f0662917f8c94dcfb1c405d upstream. The strcpy was being used to set the name of the board. This was both wrong and redundant, since the destination char* was read-only and the name is set statically at compile time. The type of the name field is changed to const char* to prevent future errors.
