[PATCH] mfd: 88pm886: Constify struct regmap_irq_chip and some other structures
Posted by Christophe JAILLET 7 months, 1 week ago
'struct regmap_irq_chip' is not modified in this driver.

Constifying this structure moves some data to a read-only section, so
increase overall security, especially when the structure holds some
function pointers.

While at it, also constify some other structures.

On a x86_64, with allmodconfig, as an example:
Before:
======
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
   5032	   3304	     64	   8400	   20d0	drivers/mfd/88pm886.o

After:
=====
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
   5800	   2536	     64	   8400	   20d0	drivers/mfd/88pm886.o
