[PATCH] mei: bus: constify the struct mei_cl_bus_type usage
Posted by Kunwu Chan 1 year, 9 months ago
Now that the driver core can properly handle constant struct bus_type,
move the mei_cl_bus_type variable to be a constant structure as well,
placing it into read-only memory which can not be modified at runtime.
