This serie constify struct lib80211_crypto_ops. This sutructure is mostly some function pointers, so having it in a read-only section when possible is safer. The 1st patch, update some function prototypes and data structures in lib80211. The 2nd patch constifies some struct lib80211_crypto_ops in lib80211. This moves some data to a read-only section, so increase overall security. The 3rd patch does the same for staging/rtl8192e. Note that the functions have looked in staging/rtl8192e look really similar to the ones in lib80211. Maybe it could be removed in favor of the latter. Each patch in the serie has been compile tested ony.
