Subject: [PATCH 6.6 0707/1424] USB: make to_usb_driver() use container_of_const()
Date: Sat, 12 Sep 2026 08:52:19 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260912065623.132617070@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260912065607.279695368@linuxfoundation.org>

6.6-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

[ Upstream commit 2f3aab7aecb827ba93c6222646eb0faa8228d590 ]

Turns out that we have some const pointers being passed to
to_usb_driver() but were not catching this.  Change the macro to
properly propagate the const-ness of the pointer so that we will notice
when we try to write to memory that we shouldn't be writing to.

This requires fixing up the usb_match_dynamic_id() function as well,
because it can handle a const * to struct usb_driver.
