Subject: [PATCH] tsm-mr: Fix init breakage after bin_attrs constification by scoping non-const pointers to init phase
Date: Tue, 13 May 2025 10:47:42 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250513154742.9548-1-cedric.xing@intel.com> (raw)

Commit 9bec944506fa ("sysfs: constify attribute_group::bin_attrs") enforced
the ro-after-init principle by making elements of bin_attrs pointing to
const.

To align with this change, introduce a temporary variable `bap` within the
initialization loop. This improves code clarity by explicitly marking the
initialization scope and eliminates the need for type casts after bin_attrs
was constified.
