Hi. Thanks for your response. Changing to  "const static" would fix
the first error but looking at the second error indicates that it
can't be a const, right? So checkpatch.pl was wrong?

checkpatch.pl is a perl script that does its best here.  You always have
to then look at the code itself to see if what it is asking you to do is
correct.

And you always have to at the very least, test build your changes to
verify that they do not break anything.

thanks,
