+From khali@linux-fr.org Wed Jul 7 14:40:00 2010
+From: Jean Delvare <khali@linux-fr.org>
+Date: Fri, 2 Jul 2010 16:54:05 +0200
+Subject: sysfs: sysfs_chmod_file's attr can be const
+Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
+Message-ID: <20100702165405.0a903769@hyperion.delvare>
+
+
+sysfs_chmod_file doesn't change the attribute it operates on, so this
+attribute can be marked const.
