In principle I agree with you.

For practical reasons, I would opt for leaving the buf definition as
void *, since other functions (like globally visible dfu_write) uses
this buffer as void *.

Adding const there would require removing this qualifier in the line
[1] since then dp pointer is passed to dfu_write(), which requires void
* pointer.
