From 3b443def46cc730c0ba590c5692d085b80a8659c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rasmus Villemoes Date: Sat, 27 Oct 2018 00:30:59 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] hwmon: (core) remove redundant cast struct attribute::name which this local variable name is eventually assigned to is "const char*", and so is the template parameter. We might as well preserve the constness all the way through.
