[PATCH 3/6] s390: vmlogrdr: make vmlogrdr_class constant

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

 



Since commit 43a7206b0963 ("driver core: class: make class_register() take
a const *"), the driver core allows for struct class to be in read-only
memory, so move the vmlogrdr_class structure to be declared at build time
placing it into read-only memory, instead of having to be dynamically
allocated at boot time.
