[ v2: Also dup string for early caches, requested by David Rientjes ]

kstrdups that early could cause additional issues. Its better to leave
things as they were.

For me is really all the same. But note that before those kstrdups, we do a
bunch of kmallocs as well already. (ex:

We check carefully and make sure those caches are present before doing
these kmallocs. See the slab bootup code. A kstrdup may take a variously
sized string and explode because the required kmalloc cache is not
present.
