[PATCH v1] ALSA: aoa: Constify struct configfs_item_operations and configfs_group_operations

From: Christophe JAILLET

Date: Thu Feb 26 2026 - 15:53:43 EST


'struct codec_connection' are not modified in this driver.

Constifying these structures moves some data to a read-only section, so
increases overall security.

On a x86_64, with allmodconfig:
Before:
======
text data bss dec hex filename
10034 3392 12 13438 347e sound/aoa/fabrics/layout.o

After:
=====
text data bss dec hex filename
10370 3040 12 13422 346e sound/aoa/fabrics/layout.o

Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@xxxxxxxxxx>

Compile tested only.

The fabric_data field in struct aoa_codecis is only used in
sound/aoa/fabrics/layout.c, so there should be no side effect for other
files that include sound/aoa/aoa.h
