    fw_cfg: Constify struct kobj_type · 4a21d31d
    Hongbo Li authored
    This 'struct kobj_type' is not modified. It is only used in
    kobject_init_and_add() which takes a 'const struct kobj_type *ktype'
    parameter.
    
    Constifying this structure and moving it to a read-only section,
    and this can increase over all security.
