  [PATCH 5/7] x86: ksysfs: constify attribute_group structures. Arvind Yadav <arvind.yadav.cs@gmail.com> - 2017-07-20 09:30 +0200

#1692493 — [PATCH 5/7] x86: ksysfs: constify attribute_group structures.

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

File size before:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
   1183	    384	      0	   1567	    61f	arch/x86/kernel/ksysfs.o

File size After adding 'const':
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
   1311	    256	      0	   1567	    61f	arch/x86/kernel/ksysfs.o
