Ray Zhang	afb903f28c	const_structs.checkpatch: remove drm_connector from the list ... In some cases drm_connector_funcs cannot be const. For example, if the connector is created in one module, and it's passed to another module and is allowed to be changed by that module as that module has specific info required to implement it.

Joe Perches	15c03cfeab	const_structs.checkpatch: add frequently used from Julia Lawall's list ... Using const is generally a good idea.

Link: https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/8/28/95 Add the most frequently used (> 50 cases) that are almost always or always const.
