Hi Niklas,

The majority of libata APIs don't use const in this way, so I think that
consistency is better.
Indeed, this is not const data which you're pointing at, so maybe it's
better to be honest with the compiler. And since this is inlined, could
the compiler optimise out multiple reads on ap->flags in a caller
function since we tell it it's const?
Thanks,
John
