Sorry for giving you trouble over such a simple patch (especially
one that I have acked already), but I just noticed that this is
not following the common style we use in the kernel.
It's all good. It's not like you haven't saved me a tonne of time
already! :)
Almost everywhere in Linux, we use
static const struct of_device_id sdhci_bcm_kona_of_match[] = {
not
static struct of_device_id const sdhci_bcm_kona_of_match[] = {
True enough. I put the const where I did to be in keeping with the
intent of __initconst, making the array const instead of the contained type.
AFAICT they behave in identical ways,
Indeed. For C in both cases the resulting array of struct of_device_id
ends up in .rodata, so functionally equivalent.
but the first one seems
easier to read for someone familiar with kernel code.
No worries. Happy to post a v3.
Linus Walleij: Would you like me to respin the "gpio, bcm-kona,
LLVMLinux: Remove use of __initconst" patch as well?
