• 15c03cfea   const_structs.checkpatch: add frequently used from Julia Lawall's list ... Browse Code »

  Using const is generally a good idea.

  Julia Lawall has created a list of always const and almost always const
  structs in the kernel sources.

  Link: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/8/28/95

  Add the most frequently used (> 50 cases) that are almost always or
  always const.
