From: Zijun Hu <quic_zijuhu@xxxxxxxxxxx>
Constify the following API:
struct device *device_find_child(struct device *dev, void *data,
int (*match)(struct device *dev, void *data));
To :
struct device *device_find_child(struct device *dev, const void *data,
device_match_t match);
typedef int (*device_match_t)(struct device *dev, const void *data);
with the following reasons:
- Protect caller's match data @*data which is for comparison and lookup
and the API does not actually need to modify @*data.
- Make the API's parameters (@match)() and @data have the same type as
all of other device finding APIs (bus|class|driver)_find_device().
- All kinds of existing device match functions can be directly taken
as the API's argument, they were exported by driver core.
Now, no (*match)() argument of the API usages is modifying @*data in
current kernel tree, so it is safe to constify the API.
