This series is aimed to address compilation warnings when a constant pointer
is passed to virt_to_phys and isa_virt_to_bus functions:

  warning: passing argument 1 of ‘virt_to_phys’ discards ‘const’ qualifier from pointer target type
  warning: passing argument 1 of ‘isa_virt_to_bus’ discards ‘const’ qualifier from pointer target type

The change(s) is the same for all architectures, but it's split into a series on
per-arch basis to simplify applying and testing on the maintainers side.

The following series implements...

This is nice.

I am working with an adjacent task, which is to make virt_to_pfn() and
pfn_to_virt() into static inlines. I might need to rebase my work on top
of this but it should be doable, I am currently stressing the buildbots
with this with the idea to propose it to Arnd once v6.4-rc1 is out:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-integrator.git/log/?h=b4/virt-to-pfn-v6-4-rc1

Yours,
Linus Walleij

Looks all good to me. If everyone is happy with it, I'll queue it up
after in the asm-generic tree for 6.5, once rc1 is out.
