Subject: [PATCH] x86/platform/uv: make const pointer dots a static const array
Date:   Sat, 27 Nov 2021 17:03:20 +0000

Precedence: bulk

Don't populate the const array dots on the stack but make it static
const and make the pointer an array to remove a dereference. Shrinks
object code a few bytes too.
