[PATCH] staging: wfx: make a const array static, makes object smaller

From: Colin King
Date: Fri Oct 16 2020 - 18:33:09 EST


From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Don't populate const array filter_ies on the stack but instead
make it static. Makes the object code smaller by 261 bytes.

Before:
text data bss dec hex filename
21674 3166 448 25288 62c8 drivers/staging/wfx/sta.o

After:
text data bss dec hex filename
21349 3230 448 25027 61c3 drivers/staging/wfx/sta.o

(gcc version 10.2.0)
