From: Márton Németh <nm127 at freemail.hu>

The match_table field of the struct of_device_id is constant in <linux/of_platform.h>
so it is worth to make the initialization data also constant.

The semantic match that finds this kind of pattern is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>

	struct I1 {
	  ...
	  const struct I2 *x;
	  ...

@s@
identifier r.I1, y;
identifier r.x, E;

	struct I1 y = {
	  .x = E,
	};
@c@

	const struct I2 E[] = ... ;
@depends on !c@

// </smpl>
