... you're actively dropping const here (which I consider bad) is
find_cpio_data() wrongly taking void * as 2nd parameter. Internally it
copies the parameter to a const char * variable, so the non-const param
is bogus. With the const here retained and const added further up (on
top of a trivial prereq patch adjusting find_cpio_data(), which I've
just sent out):
