Subject: [PATCH] of: mtd: nuke useless const qualifier
Date: Tue, 10 Jul 2012 13:35:50 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1341927604.2963.101.camel@sauron> (raw)


[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1732 bytes --]

From: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@linux.intel.com>

This patch does the following:
 -const int of_get_nand_ecc_mode(struct device_node *np)
 +int of_get_nand_ecc_mode(struct device_node *np)

because:
1. it is probably just a typo?
2. it causes warnings like this when people assing the returned
   value to an 'int' variable:
   include/linux/of_mtd.h:14:18: warning: type qualifiers ignored on function return type [-Wignored-qualifiers]

Remove also the unnecessary "extern" qualifier to be consistent with other
declarations in this file.
