From 6d2c5d6c46dd3d9924831efd6c913fdf4d484985 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman Date: Mon, 16 Jan 2017 17:50:02 +0100 Subject: kmod: make usermodehelper path a const string This is in preparation for making it so that usermode helper programs can't be changed, if desired, by userspace. We will tackle the mess of cleaning up the write-ability of argv and env later, that's going to take more work, for much less gain...
