From: David Woodhouse Date: Fri, 23 May 2008 17:38:49 +0000 (+0100) Subject: firmware: make fw->data const X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b7a39bd0afc4021e8ad2b1189e884551e147427f;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git firmware: make fw->data const In preparation for supporting firmware files linked into the static kernel, make fw->data const to ensure that users aren't modifying it (so that we can pass a pointer to the original in-kernel copy, rather than having to copy it).
