If this buffer really isn't being modified, then the Data pointer needs to be const. Or, if the Data pointer really is going to not be const, then the function parameters need to be changed, but that means lots of code needs to be changed. Hank, what do you think is the correct thing to do here? thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
