As I mentioned in the commit log:
Drop const qualifier for ops of struct regulator_desc.
Allow regulator drivers to update ops before registering regulator.
So I don't think it's necessary to add const for ops in struct
regulator_desc.
(I think the original point was the "regulator core" won't modify the ops).
The fix is either drop the 'const' qualifier in hi6421-regulator driver or
add back const qualifier for ops of struct regulator_desc in
include/linux/regulator/driver.h.
Which one do you prefer?
Thanks,
Axel
