Subject: [PATCH 1/5] mm: constify generic pte_get*()
Date: Fri, 24 Jul 2026 11:20:13 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260724102017.141532-2-pfalcato@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260724102017.141532-1-pfalcato@suse.de>

None of the helpers need write access to the PTE. Constifying the param
allows for const typesafety.
