[PATCH 3/3 v3] net: tipc: constify genl_ops

From: Arvind Yadav <hidden>
Date: 2017-08-23 10:52:41
Also in: lkml, netdev
Subsystem: networking [general], the rest, tipc network layer · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds, Jon Maloy

genl_ops are not supposed to change at runtime. All functions
working with genl_ops provided by <net/genetlink.h> work with
const genl_ops. So mark the non-const structs as const.

Signed-off-by: Arvind Yadav <redacted>
