The const might cause a warning because prop_set_prop takes a void *value and not a const void *value. I don't know if does need to modify the value or not though.
Ok, there's room for another patch to constify prom_set_prop and all callers then :-)
About static, that might achieve the same effect as const without the warning and since the function is called only once anyway ... I would have hoped that being local to a __init function the memory for the initial values would be freed but I might me over optimistic.
Yeah, worth checking the ELF output but I think you are over optimistic :-)

We might want to check in case they ever fix it ...Yes there is a "revision" that's "2B3" for the moment. I'm not too sure if it's a firmware revision or a board revision though ...
Hrm... let's ignore it for now, we can always fixup the fixups if necessary :-) Ben.
