Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/2] PM / Domains: Mark "name" const in genpd_dev_pm_attach_by_name()

Quoting Douglas Anderson (2019-02-14 10:12:48)
> The genpd_dev_pm_attach_by_name() simply takes the name and passes it
> to of_property_match_string() where the argument is "const char *".
> Adding a const here allows a later patch to add a const to
> dev_pm_domain_attach_by_name() which allows drivers to pass in a name
> that was declared "const" in a driver.
