[PATCH RFC v11 08/12] dmaengine: constify struct dma_descriptor_metadata_ops
From: Bartosz Golaszewski
Date: Mon Mar 02 2026 - 11:14:53 EST
There's no reason for the instances of this struct to be modifiable.
Constify the pointer in struct dma_async_tx_descriptor and all drivers
currently using it.
