From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 Return-Path: To: linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org From: Jeremy Kerr Subject: [PATCH] Mark platform device data as const Message-ID: <1152667363.15190.01@pokey> In-Reply-To: <17581.40865.169428.154793@cargo.ozlabs.ibm.com> Date: Wed, 12 Jul 2006 13:56:59 +1000 (EST) Cc: greg@kroah.com List-Id: Linux on PowerPC Developers Mail List List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , platform_device_add_data()'s data argument can be qualified as const - the function just copies it to another buffer. This neatens-up storing other const-ed data there.
