From 931b261f442e779b0656d9b04c7ffe4939ef8c0a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeremy Kerr Date: Wed, 12 Jul 2006 15:42:06 +1000 Subject: [PATCH] [POWERPC] Make get_property() return a const void * Previous changes have treated the return values of get_property as const, so now we can make the actual change to get_property(). There shouldn't be a need to cast the return values anymore. We will now get compiler warnings when property values are assigned to a non-const variable. If properties need to be updated, there's still the of_find_property function. Built for cell_defconfig, chrp32_defconfig, g5_defconfig, iseries_defconfig, maple_defconfig, pmac32_defconfig, ppc64_defconfig and pseries_defconfig.
