This adds kvasprintf_const which tries to use kstrdup_const if possible: If the format string contains no % characters, or if the format string is exactly "%s", we delegate to kstrdup_const. Otherwise, we fall back to kvasprintf. Just as for kstrdup_const, the main motivation is to save memory by reusing .rodata when possible. The return value should be freed by kfree_const, just like for kstrdup_const. There is deliberately no kasprintf_const: In the vast majority of cases, the format string argument is a literal, so one can determine statically whether one could instead use kstrdup_const directly (which would also require one to change all corresponding kfree calls to kfree_const).
