Get rid of warning because fb_image data is declared 'const char *' but is
being modified by the copy_from_user.
My preference would be to get rid of all qualifiers on individual structure elements.
It is kind of like putting volatile on the structure element, it isn't really what you
want to do.  I can't see how it could help code generation and since you have to overide
it anyway it doesn't make much sense.
