[PATCH 08/26] iwlegacy: constify local structures

From: Julia Lawall <hidden>
Date: 2016-09-11 13:35:26
Also in: kernel-janitors, lkml, netdev
Subsystem: intel wireless 3945abg/bg, 4965agn (iwlegacy), the rest · Maintainers: Stanislaw Gruszka, Linus Torvalds

For structure types defined in the same file or local header files, find
top-level static structure declarations that have the following
properties:
1. Never reassigned.
2. Address never taken
3. Not passed to a top-level macro call
4. No pointer or array-typed field passed to a function or stored in a
variable.
Declare structures having all of these properties as const.

Done using Coccinelle.
Based on a suggestion by Joe Perches [off-list ref].

Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <redacted>

The semantic patch seems too long for a commit log, but is in the cover
letter.
