Re: [PATCH 1/1] checkpatch: Deprecate container_of() in favour of container_of_const()

[Christoph Hellwig]

Well, if container_of_const is a drop-in replacement for all uses of
container_of, just fix the implementation?  If it is an almost but not
complete replacement, find a different name for the few uses.  And if
it's not anywhere near drop in, just using container_of make a lot more
sense.

Just in case it wasn't clear:  We really should keep the shorter nice
name as the default if at all possible.  Both because it reads better
and because it avoids churn.
