Subject: ARM: 8597/1: VDSO: put RO and RO after init objects into proper sections
X-Git-Tag: v4.9-rc1~115^2~16
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=92bb8d5d55f7fe1a7a1201c42120c1611840807c;p=karo-tx-linux.git

ARM: 8597/1: VDSO: put RO and RO after init objects into proper sections

vdso_data_mapping is never modified, so mark it as const.

vdso_total_pages, vdso_data_page, vdso_text_mapping and cntvct_ok are
initialized by vdso_init(), thereafter are read only.

The fact that they are read only after init makes them candidates for
__ro_after_init declarations.
