[U-Boot] [PATCH v5 4/7] fs: ext4: constify the buffer passed to write functions

[Jean-Jacques Hiblot]

There is no need to modify the buffer passed to ext4fs_write_file().
The memset() call is not required here and was likely copied from the
equivalent part of the ext4fs_read_file() function where we do need it.
