cx25821: Remove bad strcpy to read-only char*
commit 380e99fc44d79bc35af9ff1d3316ef4027ce775e upstream. The strcpy was being used to set the name of the board. Since the destination char* was read-only and the name is set statically at compile time; this was both wrong and redundant. The type of char* is changed to const char* to prevent future errors.
