Subject: Kprobes: Make kprobe.symbol_name const
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9b3af29bf33bfe08c604769632799d27d56ae103;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

Kprobes: Make kprobe.symbol_name const

Kprobes doesn't scribble the kprobe.symbol_name field.  Its only set by the
module when registering the probe.  Modules that exercise good hygiene
using the "const" qualifier will see warnings...

	warning: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type

Make struct kprobe.symbol_name const char *
