The quilt patch titled Subject: treewide: mark stuff as __ro_after_init has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was mark-stuff-as-__ro_after_init.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-nonmm-stable branch of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm ------------------------------------------------------ From: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: treewide: mark stuff as __ro_after_init Date: Wed, 11 Oct 2023 19:55:00 +0300 __read_mostly predates __ro_after_init. Many variables which are marked __read_mostly should have been __ro_after_init from day 1. Also, mark some stuff as "const" and "__init" while I'm at it.
