[PATCH 4/9] serial/bcm63xx_uart: constify uart_ops structures

From: Julia Lawall
Date: Thu Sep 01 2016 - 17:45:27 EST


Check for uart_ops structures that are only stored in the ops field of a
uart_port structure. This field is declared const, so uart_ops structures
that have this property can be declared as const also.

The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@r disable optional_qualifier@
identifier i;
position p;
@@
static struct uart_ops i@p = { ... };

@ok@
identifier r.i;
struct uart_port e;
position p;
@@
e.ops = &i@p;

@bad@
position p != {r.p,ok.p};
identifier r.i;
struct uart_ops e;
@@
e@i@p

@depends on !bad disable optional_qualifier@
identifier r.i;
@@
static
+const
struct uart_ops i = { ... };
// </smpl>
