I suspect, but don't know for sure, that you're going to get another
builder splat here. Just like sizeof() isn't guaranteed to return an
"unsigned int", it's also not guaranteed to return an "unsigned long".
I believe you want %zu. See Documentation/core-api/printk-formats.rst

Boy, that function seems like overkill for something that you need
once at init time. ...and I also suspect that the lifetime of the
string returned by of_property_read_string() is valid for as long as
your "of_node" is held and thus probably you could use it directly (it
likely has a longer lifetime than the location you're storing it).

...but I guess it matches the ath10k_core_check_dt() function above
it, so I guess it's fine?
