Constant volatile variable

Can you have constant volatile variable?

You can have a const volatile variable. Its syntactically correct and often used while expecting a value change from the hardware.
Example:
The status registers (read only) if micro controllers are often declared as
const volatile statRegxxxx;

The program (software) shouldn't change the value of statRegxxxx, only the hardware can
