"const" and the variable type is interchangeable,
so this comes down to a personal preference after all,
but think about simpler cases.


[1]
    const int x = 1;
    const struct pinctrl_ops *ops;


[2]
    int const x = 1;
    struct pinctrl_ops const *ops;



Both [1] and [2] are correct and equivalent,
but my preference is [1] (and I hope you too).


In my experience in Linux / U-Boot,
source code mostly looks like [1]
(of course, [2] is mixed here and there)


I prefer style [1] ("const" before variable type),
so I removed the second "const" in this patch.



Ideally, the following might be more readable:


struct fpga_model {
        const u16       pn;
        const char      *name;
        const char      *var;
};

static const struct fpga_model socfpga_fpga_model[] = {
     ...
};



But, I will not do

static struct fpga_model const socfpga_fpga_model[] = {
     ...
};

Doesn't the position of const in the example above indicate whether it's
a const applied to the whole array or const applied to it's elements ?

Sorry, I could not get what you mean.
Could you explain it in detail, please?
