[PATCH 1/1 v3 nf-next] netfilter: constify nf_conntrack_l3/4proto parameters

Julia Lawall
2017-08-01T10:50:27Z

When a nf_conntrack_l3/4proto parameter is not on the left hand side
of an assignment, its address is not taken, and it is not passed to a
function that may modify its fields, then it can be declared as const.

This change is useful from a documentation point of view, and can
possibly facilitate making some nf_conntrack_l3/4proto structures const
subsequently.

Done with the help of Coccinelle.

Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@lip6.fr>

v3:

Rebased against nf-next. Some functions, such as
nf_ct_l3proto_pernet_register, are no longer defined, so they are no longer
updated.
