[PATCH v3 10/11] slimbus: qcom-ngd: Fix kfree() of static memory on setting driver_override

The driver_override field from platform driver should not be initialized
from static memory (string literal) because the core later kfree() it,
for example when driver_override is set via sysfs.

Use dedicated helper to set driver_override properly.
