Hi, this series allows drivers to have "const" file_operations, by making the f_ops field in the inode const. This has another benefit, there have been several bugs where code accidentally wrote to the ->f_ops structure, forgetting that it's a shared structure. One of those bugs got fixed in november for example (as a result of these patches), another one is fixed in this series. Greetings, Arjan van de Ven
