The current interface of intel_gvt_register_hypervisor() expects a non-const pointer to struct intel_gvt_mpt, even though the mediator never modifies (or should modifiy) the content of this struct. Change the function signature and relevant struct members to const to properly express the API's intent and allow instances of intel_gvt_mpt to be allocated as const. While I was here, I also made KVM's instance of this struct const to reduce the number of writable function pointers in the kernel.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
