Most structures in this driver are not modified. Constifying these structures moves some data to a read-only section, so increase overall security, especially when the structure holds some function pointers. (This is the case for see meson_ee_pwrc_domain_desc) On a x86_64, with allmodconfig, as an example: Before: ====== text data bss dec hex filename 8924 3832 0 12756 31d4 drivers/pmdomain/amlogic/meson-ee-pwrc.o After: ===== text data bss dec hex filename 12396 336 0 12732 31bc drivers/pmdomain/amlogic/meson-ee-pwrc.o Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr> Reviewed-by: Martin Blumenstingl <martin.blumenstingl@googlemail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/edc560afe2a8763c93341d161daeb8b33ba606c6.1746199917.git.christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr Signed-off-by: Ulf Hansson <ulf.hansson@linaro.org>
