Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: drivers: Mark some variables as __ro_after_init
Date: Sun, 24 May 2026 16:52:48 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260524165249.48941-1-len.bao@gmx.us> (raw)

Some variables in the 'ALSA/drivers' are initialized only during the
init phase in the '__init' functions and never changed. So, mark them
as __ro_after_init to reduce the attack surface.
