As long as there is no other non-const variable marked __initdata in the
same compilation unit it doesn't hurt. If there were one however
compilation would fail with

	error: $variablename causes a section type conflict

because a section containing const variables is marked read only and so
cannot contain non-const variables.

I do not understand why though.

that's because the strings are constant, but the array is not. The fix
is:

-static const char *imx51_dt_board_compat[] __initconst = {
+static const char *const imx51_dt_board_compat[] __initconst = {

or keeping __initdata.

Best regards
Uwe

Ah, yes.  It indeed could be overlooked :)
