From 2bd8bd2524699f543e12f9422974ea393f383c67 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Axtens Date: Mon, 30 Jan 2017 17:41:53 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/sparse: Constify the address pointer in __get_user_check() In __get_user_check, we create an intermediate pointer for the user address we're about to fetch. We currently don't tag this pointer as const. Make it const, as we are simply dereferencing it, and it's scope is limited to the __get_user_check macro.
