[PATCH] leds: make the default trigger name const

From: Trent Piepho
Date: Mon Sep 22 2008 - 18:40:17 EST


The default_trigger fields of struct gpio_led and thus struct led_classdev
are pretty much always assigned from a string literal, which means the
string can't be modified. Which is fine, since there is no reason to
modify the string and in fact it never is.

But they should be marked const to prevent such code from being added, to
prevent warnings if -Wwrite-strings is used, when assigned from a constant
string other than a string literal (which produces a warning under current
kernel compiler flags), and for general good coding practices.
