[PATCH 3/9] riscv: Constify sys_call_table

From: Jisheng Zhang <hidden>
Date: 2021-03-29 18:29:41
Also in: linux-riscv, lkml, netdev
Subsystem: risc-v architecture, the rest · Maintainers: Paul Walmsley, Palmer Dabbelt, Albert Ou, Linus Torvalds

From: Jisheng Zhang <jszhang@kernel.org>

Constify the sys_call_table so that it will be placed in the .rodata
section. This will cause attempts to modify the table to fail when
strict page permissions are in place.
