The Allwinner SoCs all have an ADC that can also act as a touchscreen
controller and a thermal sensor. This patch adds the ADC driver which is
based on the MFD for the same SoCs ADC.

static instead of const?

static const then?
no, the const is redundant and ignored
-Wignored-qualifiers gives a warning

just static, no const

wondering why you constify every member?
Because they're supposed to be fixed values? It won't change in runtime.
Is there any reason why I shouldn't do that?
yes, but using the entire struct as const has the same effect;
constifying individual members makes more sense if there are also 
non-const members

nothing wrong, just unusual
So I would let all members non-const and then when using the struct
soc_specific as a member in a struct or as a variable I would prefix it
with const? That's what you mean by using the entire struct as const?

Thanks,
