The input data passed to execute commands with tps6598x_exec_cmd() is not supposed to be modified by the function. Moreover, this data is passed to tps6598x_exec_cmd_tmo() and finally to tps6598x_block_write(), which expects a const pointer. The current implementation does not produce any bugs, but it discards const qualifiers from the pointers passed as arguments. This leads to compile issues if 'discarded-qualifiers' is active and a const pointer is passed to the function, which is the case if data from a firmware structure is passed to execute update commands. Adding the const modifier to in_data prevents such issues and provides code consistency.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
