The definition static const char *omap3_boards_compat[] __initconst = { defines a changable array of constant strings. That is you must not do: *omap3_boards_compat[0] = 'f'; but omap3_boards_compat[0] = "another string"; is fine. So the annotation __initconst is wrong and yields a compiler error when other really const variables are added with __initconst. As the struct machine_desc member dt_compat is declared as const char *const *dt_compat; making the arrays const is the better alternative over changing all annotations to __initdata.
