    MIPS: SMP: Constify smp ops · ff2c8252
    Matt Redfearn 提交于
    smp_ops providers do not modify their ops structures, so they should be
    made const for robustness. Since currently the MIPS kernel is not mapped
    with memory protection, this does not in itself provide any security
    benefit, but it still makes sense to make this change.
    
    There are also slight code size efficincies from the structure being
    made read-only, saving 128 bytes of kernel text on a
    pistachio_defconfig.
    Before:
       text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename

    After:
       text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
    7187111	1772752	 470224	9430087	 8fe447	vmlinux
