[PATCH 1/3] serial: core: Make uart_parse_options take const char* argument

From: Paul Cercueil <hidden>
Date: 2017-12-28 13:14:15
Also in: linux-devicetree, lkml
Subsystem: the rest, tty layer and serial drivers · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, Greg Kroah-Hartman, Jiri Slaby

The pointed string is never modified from within uart_parse_options, so
it should be marked as const in the function prototype.

Signed-off-by: Paul Cercueil <redacted>
