[PATCH 1/3] staging: greybus: raw: make raw_class constant

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu Oct 05 2023 - 10:40:33 EST


Now that the driver core allows for struct class to be in read-only
memory, making all 'class' structures to be declared at build time
placing them into read-only memory, instead of having to be dynamically
allocated at load time.
