[PATCH] of/fdt: Make fdt blob input parameters of unflatten functions const

From: Geert Uytterhoeven
Date: Wed May 13 2015 - 10:34:35 EST


Operations to unflatten fdt blobs never modify the input blobs, hence
make them const. Now we no longer need to cast arbitrary const data to
"void *" when calling of_fdt_unflatten_tree().
