I agree, this is going to be fixed up, see the thread starting here:
	https://lore.kernel.org/r/Y34+V2bCDdqujBDk@kroah.com

I'll work on making a const / non const version for these so that we
don't loose the marking.

Oh wait, no, this function is fine, it's not modifying the device
structure at all, and only returning the pointer in the private data
stored in the device.  There is no loss of const-ness here.

thanks,

Hi Greg,

This is what I found in include/linux/mISDNif.h:

struct mISDNdevice {
	struct mISDNchannel	D;
	u_int			id;
	u_int			Dprotocols;
	u_int			Bprotocols;
	u_int			nrbchan;
	u_char			channelmap[MISDN_CHMAP_SIZE];
	struct list_head	bchannels;
	struct mISDNchannel	*teimgr;
	struct device		dev;
};

As one can see 'dev' is a member of struct mISDNdevice. I still think 
that dev_to_mISDN() drops constness. Did I perhaps overlook something?

Bart.

I think you are missing that dev_to_mISDN() is doing something different
than most dev_to_FOO() functions do (i.e. there is no container_of()
call here at all):

static inline struct mISDNdevice *dev_to_mISDN(struct device *dev)
{
	if (dev)
		return dev_get_drvdata(dev);
	else
		return NULL;
}

See, no pointer mess or anything else here, all that happens is the
driver data pointer in struct device is returned.

If this was a "normal" dev_to_FOO() function, then yes, the const-ness
of the pointer would be called into question as the thread I linked to
discusses.

thanks,
