Subject: linux-next: percpu tree build warning

Hi all,

Today's linux-next build (powerpc ppc64_defconfig) produced this warning:

drivers/net/loopback.c: In function 'loopback_get_stats':
drivers/net/loopback.c:109: warning: initialization discards qualifiers from pointer target type

The line in question is:

	lb_stats = per_cpu_ptr(pcpu_lstats, i);

Where "lb_stats" and "pcpu_lstats" are both "const struct pcpu_lstats
*".  I guess this is because of __verify_pcpu_ptr().
