From: Colin Ian King <[email protected]>
passing rtl_stats by value is inefficient; the structure is over 300
bytes in size and generally just one field (packet_report_type)
is being accessed, so the pass by value is a relatively large overhead.
This change just affects just the rx_command_packet calls.

Why not using a const pointer?
Best regards,

I think "const structl rtl_stats* status" is enough, no need to make that pointer const itself. Dunno if that would make any difference for compilers in that case.
The idea is that you cannot change the passed struct, same as before because of copy by value.
