Modules that exercise good hygiene using the "const" qualifier will see warnings... warning: assignment discards qualifiers from pointer target type Make struct kprobe.symbol_name const char * Signed-off-by: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli <ananth@in.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jim Keniston <jkenisto@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
