[PATCH 4/9] tty: constify tty_ldisc_receive_buf buffer pointer

From: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org>
Date: 2017-01-06 16:28:59
Also in: linux-serial, lkml
Subsystem: the rest, tty layer and serial drivers · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Greg Kroah-Hartman, Jiri Slaby

This is needed to work with the client operations which uses const ptrs.

Really, the flags pointer could be const, too, but this would be a tree
wide fix.

Signed-off-by: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org>
