The problem is dra74x_boards_compat though:

	static const char *dra74x_boards_compat[] __initconst = {
		...

*dra74x_boards_compat is const, but dra74x_boards_compat isn't, so
either the variable must go into __initdata or it must be declared as:

	static const char * const dra74x_boards_compat[] __initconst = {
		...

(but then I guess you get another warning because struct machine_desc's
dt_compat is declared as

	const char **dt_compat;

.)

With the patch below, arch/arm/mach-omap2/board-generic.c compiles just
fine. Don't know yet if the additional const in <asm/mach_desc.h> is
problematic ...
