/me wonders, does this have any significant effect on the generated
code?

It's probably a good idea to feed the optimizer as much usage info as we
can, though I would imagine that for such a simple function it can
probably tell that we don't change *iomap.

IMHO, constifiying functions is a good way to signal to /programmers/
that they're not intended to touch the arguments, so
