[PATCH 1/2] tty: vt: make vtconsole_class constant

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

 



Now that the driver core allows for struct class to be in read-only
memory, making all 'class' structures to be declared at build time
placing them into read-only memory, instead of having to be dynamically
allocated at load time.
