[PATCH 3/3] nvme: fcloop: make fcloop_class constant

From: Ricardo B. Marliere
Date: Tue Mar 05 2024 - 08:17:06 EST


Since commit 43a7206b0963 ("driver core: class: make class_register() take
a const *"), the driver core allows for struct class to be in read-only
memory, so move the fcloop_class structure to be declared at build time
placing it into read-only memory, instead of having to be dynamically
allocated at boot time.
