Subject: arm64/xor: fix conflicting attributes for xor_block_template
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=675a0dd596e712404557286d0a883b54ee28e4f4;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

arm64/xor: fix conflicting attributes for xor_block_template

Commit 2c54b423cf85 ("arm64/xor: use EOR3 instructions when available")
changes the definition to __ro_after_init instead of const, but failed to
update the external declaration in xor.h.  This was not found because
xor-neon.c doesn't include <asm/xor.h>, and can't easily do that due to
current architecture of the XOR code.
