Subject: [PATCH] drm: vmwgfx: constify vmw_fence_ops

vmw_fence_ops are not supposed to change at runtime. Functions
"dma_fence_init" working with const vmw_fence_ops provided
by <linux/dma-fence.h>. So mark the non-const structs as const.

Does this mean you'll merge it, or does this mean you'll expect someone
else to merge this?

I'm always confused when maintainers reply with an r-b/ack for a patch
only touching their driver, and no further information at all.

For patches only touching our driver, I'd say we're always responsible
for sorting out how it's going to be merged.

Since Sinclair is maintaining the vmwgfx trees I thought I'd give him a
chance to comment on how he wanted it merged.

Yes, we have this queued and will go out in the next pull request.
