[PATCH 0/7] Expect immutable pointer in virt_to_phys/isa_virt_to_bus prototypes

[Stanislav Kinsburskii]

This series is aimed to address compilation warnings when a constant pointer
is passed to virt_to_phys and isa_virt_to_bus functions:

  warning: passing argument 1 of ‘virt_to_phys’ discards ‘const’ qualifier from pointer target type
  warning: passing argument 1 of ‘isa_virt_to_bus’ discards ‘const’ qualifier from pointer target type

The change(s) is the same for all architectures, but it's split into a series on
per-arch basis to simplify applying and testing on the maintainers side.

The following series implements...

These two helper functions - virt_to_phys and isa_virt_to_bus - don't need the
address pointer to be mutable.

In the same time expecting it to be mutable leads to the following build

[PATCH 6/7] powerpc: asm/io.h: Expect immutable pointer in virt_to_phys prototype

[Stanislav Kinsburskii]

From: Stanislav Kinsburskii <stanislav.kinsburskii@gmail.com>

These helper function - virt_to_phys - doesn't need the address pointer to
be mutable.

In the same time expecting it to be mutable leads to the following build
warning for constant pointers:

  warning: passing argument 1 of ‘virt_to_phys’ discards ‘const’ qualifier from pointer target type

I changed several other virt_to_phys() implementations to add const to
the argument and no problems so this should work fine.

after in the asm-generic tree for 6.5, once rc1 is out.

I am working with an adjacent task, which is to make virt_to_pfn() and
pfn_to_virt() into static inlines. I might need to rebase my work on top
of this but it should be doable, I am currently stressing the buildbots
with this with the idea to propose it to Arnd once v6.4-rc1 is out:
