Subject: [PATCH] fs: xfs: libxfs: constify xfs_nameops structures

Declare the structure xfs_nameops as const as it is only stored in the
m_dirnameops field of a xfs_mount structure. This field is of type
const struct xfs_nameops *, so xfs_nameops structures having this
property can be declared as const.
Done using Coccinelle:
@r1 disable optional_qualifier @
identifier i;
position p;

static struct xfs_nameops i@p = {...};

@ok1@
identifier r1.i;
position p;
struct xfs_mount mp;

mp.m_dirnameops=&i@p

@bad@
position p!={r1.p,ok1.p};
