Subject: atm: fix const assignment/discard warnings in the ATM networking driver
From: David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx>
Fix const assignment/discard warnings in the ATM networking driver.
The lane2_assoc_ind() function needed its arguments changing to match changes
in the lane2_ops struct (patch 61c33e012964ce358b42d2a1e9cd309af5dab02b).
