[PATCH 1/3] HID: make hid_bus_type const

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Dec 20 2023 - 02:39:58 EST


Now that the driver core can properly handle constant struct bus_type,
move the hid_bus_type variable to be a constant structure as well,
placing it into read-only memory which can not be modified at runtime.
