tpm: constify transmit data pointers Making cmd_getticks 'const' introduced a couple of harmless warnings: drivers/char/tpm/tpm_tis_core.c: In function 'probe_itpm': drivers/char/tpm/tpm_tis_core.c:469:31: error: passing argument 2 of 'tpm_tis_send_data' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [-Werror=discarded-qualifiers] rc = tpm_tis_send_data(chip, cmd_getticks, len); drivers/char/tpm/tpm_tis_core.c:477:31: error: passing argument 2 of 'tpm_tis_send_data' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [-Werror=discarded-qualifiers] rc = tpm_tis_send_data(chip, cmd_getticks, len); drivers/char/tpm/tpm_tis_core.c:255:12: note: expected 'u8 * {aka unsigned char *}' but argument is of type 'const u8 * {aka const unsigned char *}' static int tpm_tis_send_data(struct tpm_chip *chip, u8 *buf, size_t len) This changes the related functions to all take 'const' pointers so that gcc can see this as being correct. I had to slightly modify the logic around tpm_tis_spi_transfer() for this to work without introducing ugly casts.
