[PATCH 01/12] net: usbnet: constify the struct device_type usage

From: Ricardo B. Marliere
Date: Sat Feb 17 2024 - 15:13:32 EST


Since commit aed65af1cc2f ("drivers: make device_type const"), the driver
core can properly handle constant struct device_type. Move the wlan_type
and wwan_type variables to be constant structures as well, placing it into
read-only memory which can not be modified at runtime.
