From ae3cf476450674dcba4239f144d310c472a08b5d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Wed, 7 Dec 2016 07:36:46 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] iwlegacy: make il3945_mac_ops __ro_after_init There's no need for this to be only __read_mostly, since it's only written in a single way depending on the module parameter, so that can be moved into the module's __init function, and the ops can be __ro_after_init. This is a little bit safer since it means the ops can't be overwritten (accidentally or otherwise), which would otherwise cause an arbitrary function or bad pointer to be called.
