[PATCH] thunderbolt: constify attribute_group structure

From: Amitoj Kaur Chawla
Date: Fri Aug 04 2017 - 21:42:49 EST


Functions working with attribute_groups provided by <linux/device.h>
work with const attribute_group. These attribute_group structures do not
change at runtime so mark them as const.

File size before:
text data bss dec hex filename
28565 7300 0 35865 8c19 drivers/thunderbolt/switch.o

File size after:
text data bss dec hex filename
28661 7204 0 35865 8c19 drivers/thunderbolt/switch.o

This change was made with the help of Coccinelle.
