I'm not sure I understand the question. What would the warning say?

We'll hopefully automatically make over 3000 structs const. I
understand warning that people should make structs const when possible
but I don't understand why we would want to remove auto consting?

Putting __do_const in the .h file is basically the same as marking
every struct of that type as const in the .c file. The errors are
caught at compile time.
