The ucode TLV data may be read-only and should be treated as const pointers, but currently a few code forcibly cast to the writable pointer unnecessarily. This gave developers a wrong impression as if it can be modified, resulting in crashing regressions already a couple of times. This patch adds the const prefix to those cast pointers, so that such attempt can be caught more easily in future.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
