[0/8] drivers: phy: Constify static phy_ops structs

Message

Rikard Falkeborn Aug. 23, 2020, 10 p.m. UTC

This series constifies all static phy_ops structs in drivers/phy.
Typically the only usage is to pass the address of it to devm_phy_create()
which takes a const pointer. The lone exception is in
drivers/phy/qualcomm/phy-qcom-ipq4019-usb.c where the address of the
structs is assigned to the data-field in of_device_id, which is a const
void pointer.

Making the structs const allows the compiler to put them in read-only
memory.

The patches are all independent of each other, and have been
compile-tested only.

Perhaps add phy_ops to scripts/const_structs.checkpatch too
