[PATCH] ipmi: use dynamic memory for DMI driver override

[John Garry <john.garry@huawei.com>]

Currently a crash can be seen if we reach the "err"
label in dmi_add_platform_ipmi(), calling
platform_device_put(), like here:

This is because when the device is released in
platform_device_release(), we try to free
pdev.driver_override. This is a const string, hence
the crash.
Fix by using dynamic memory for pdev->driver_override.
