[PATCH] of: mtd: nuke useless const qualifier

From: Bityutskiy, Artem
Date: Tue Jul 10 2012 - 09:36:32 EST


From: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch does the following:
-const int of_get_nand_ecc_mode(struct device_node *np)
+int of_get_nand_ecc_mode(struct device_node *np)

because:
1. it is probably just a typo?
2. it causes warnings like this when people assing the returned
value to an 'int' variable:
include/linux/of_mtd.h:14:18: warning: type qualifiers ignored on function return type [-Wignored-qualifiers]

Remove also the unnecessary "extern" qualifier to be consistent with other
declarations in this file.
