[PATCH 2/5] powerpc/secvar: Constify 'struct bin_attribute'

From: Thomas Weißschuh
Date: Sun Dec 15 2024 - 23:08:37 EST


The sysfs core now allows instances of 'struct bin_attribute' to be
moved into read-only memory. Make use of that to protect them against
accidental or malicious modifications.
