[PATCH] net: constify attribute_group structures.
From: Arvind Yadav
Date: Thu Jun 29 2017 - 07:02:34 EST
attribute_groups are not supposed to change at runtime. All functions
working with attribute_groups provided by <linux/device.h> work with const
attribute_group. So mark the non-const structs as const.
File size before:
text data bss dec hex filename
9968 3168 16 13152 3360 net/core/net-sysfs.o
File size After adding 'const':
text data bss dec hex filename
10160 2976 16 13152 3360 net/core/net-sysfs.o
