[PATCH v3 02/10] net: can: at91_can: constify attribute_group structures.

From: Arvind Yadav
Date: Tue Jul 18 2017 - 05:45:03 EST


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

File size before:
text data bss dec hex filename
6164 304 0 6468 1944 drivers/net/can/at91_can.o

File size After adding 'const':
text data bss dec hex filename
6228 240 0 6468 1944 drivers/net/can/at91_can.o
