[PATCH] iio: Mark iio_device_type as const

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The iio_device_type struct is never modified, mark it as const. This allows
it to be placed in a read-only memory section, which will protect against
accidental or deliberate modification.
