From: Joe Perches <joe@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: const_structs.checkpatch: add frequently used from Julia Lawall's list Using const is generally a good idea. Julia Lawall has created a list of always const and almost always const structs in the kernel sources. Link: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/8/28/95 Add the most frequently used (> 50 cases) that are almost always or always const.
