[PATCH] kernel: cpu: hotplug: constify attribute_group structures.

From: Arvind Yadav
Date: Thu Jun 29 2017 - 08:11:17 EST


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

File size before:
text data bss dec hex filename
12582 15361 20 27963 6d3b kernel/cpu.o

File size After adding 'const':
text data bss dec hex filename
12710 15265 20 27995 6d5b kernel/cpu.o
