[PATCH v2] dio: make dio_bus_type const

From: Ricardo B. Marliere
Date: Mon Feb 12 2024 - 06:40:31 EST


Now that the driver core can properly handle constant struct bus_type,
move the dio_bus_type variable to be a constant structure as well,
placing it into read-only memory which can not be modified at runtime.
