From 26579ab70aa0e0ea434e6e100279d2f67c094431 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Phil Carmody Date: Fri, 18 Dec 2009 15:34:19 +0200 Subject: Driver core: device_attribute parameters can often be const* Most device_attributes are const, and are begging to be put in a ro section. However, the create and remove file interfaces were failing to propagate the const promise which the only functions they call offer.
