From c22618a11d1ba2966bd2cfd5e4918ed4f2dad13e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Grant Likely Date: Wed, 14 Nov 2012 22:37:12 +0000 Subject: drivers/of: Constify device_node->name and ->path_component_name Neither of these should ever be changed once set. Make them const and fix up the users that try to modify it in-place. In one case kmalloc+memcpy is replaced with kstrdup() to avoid modifying the string. Build tested with defconfigs on ARM, PowerPC, Sparc, MIPS, x86 among others. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely Acked-by: David S.
