Re: [PATCH v2] riscv: jump_label: mark arguments as const to satisfy asm constraints

Hey Jisheng,
LKP reported an error that seems to only have gone to myself & Samuel,
but the branch it's complaining about is your v1:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/202210122123.Cc4FPShJ-lkp@xxxxxxxxx/

Any idea what the story is here?

Thanks,
Conor.
