Subject: [PATCH next] net: netfilter: nfnetlink_cthelper: Remove 'const' and '&' to avoid warnings
Date: Wed, 24 Dec 2014 23:04:54 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <549AD616.7070709@gmail.com> (raw)

The related code can be simplified, and also can avoid related warnings
(with allmodconfig under parisc):

    memcpy(&help->data, nla_data(attr), help->helper->data_len);
