This is caused by a function returning 'const int', which doesn't
make sense to gcc. Drop 'const' to fix the problem.

Although it's strange you report this happening on line 750 in the
changelog but the patch shows it differently.


In the latest kernel (v3.16-rc1) the function is at line 750.
It appears that I ran the build test on a later version than
the one I used to write the patch. Hope that is not a problem.
