[PATCH 1/5] platform/x86: dell: dcdbas: Constify 'struct bin_attribute'
Posted by Thomas Weißschuh 1 day, 23 hours ago
The sysfs core now allows instances of 'struct bin_attribute' to be
moved into read-only memory. Make use of that to protect them against
accidental or malicious modifications.

While at it switch from the custom DCDBAS_BIN_ATTR_RW() to the identical
BIN_ATTR_RW() macro.
