sysctl: treewide: constify argument ctl_table_root::permissions(table)
The permissions callback should not modify the ctl_table. Enforce this
expectation via the typesystem. This is a step to put "struct ctl_table"
into .rodata throughout the kernel.
The patch was created with the following coccinelle script:
@@
identifier func, head, ctl;
@@
int func(
struct ctl_table_header *head,
- struct ctl_table *ctl)
+ const struct ctl_table *ctl)
{ ... }
(insert_entry() from fs/proc/proc_sysctl.c is a false-positive)
No additional occurrences of '.permissions =' were found after a
tree-wide search for places missed by the conccinelle script.
