[PATCH v2 7/9] vdpa: solidrun: Fix potential UB bug with devres

In psnet_open_pf_bar() a string later passed to pcim_iomap_regions() is
placed on the stack. Neither pcim_iomap_regions() nor the functions it
calls copy that string.

Should the string later ever be used, this, consequently, causes
undefined behavior since the stack frame will by then have disappeared.

Fix the bug by allocating the string on the heap through
devm_kasprintf().
