   3 Subject: [PATCH] brcmfmac: use const char * for interface name in
   4  brcmf_add_if

   9 This function can work just fine with const pointer, it only calls
  10 alloc_netdev which take const as well. Moreover it makes this function
  11 more flexible as some cfg80211 callback may provide const char * as
  12 well, e.g. add_virtual_intf. This will be needed for more advanced
  13 interface management.
