[PATCH 1/4] USB: make to_usb_driver() use container_of_const()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Jun 14 2024 - 08:12:20 EST


Turns out that we have some const pointers being passed to
to_usb_driver() but were not catching this. Change the macro to
properly propagate the const-ness of the pointer so that we will notice
when we try to write to memory that we shouldn't be writing to.

This requires fixing up the usb_match_dynamic_id() function as well,
because it can handle a const * to struct usb_driver.
