device_property functions do not modify the device pointer passed to them. The underlying of_device and fwnode_ functions actually already take const * arguments. Mark the parameter constant to simplify conversion from of_property to device_property functions, and to let the calling code use const device pointers where possible. Cc: Chris Packham <chris.packham@alliedtelesis.co.nz> Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <linux@roeck-us.net> --- Found by Chris when trying to convert a driver from of_property_ to device_property_ functions. I don't really see a reason why the device parameter to device_property functions should not be const.
