From e6eeb287e3b534ce1bd6477894b9df8e394b4fbc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julia Lawall Date: Tue, 1 Aug 2017 18:27:29 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "l2tp: constify inet6_protocol structures" This reverts commit d04916a48ad4a3db892b664fa9c3a2a693c378ad. inet6_add_protocol and inet6_del_protocol include casts that remove the effect of the const annotation on their parameter, leading to possible runtime crashes.
