[PATCH] mwifiex: make arrays static const, makes object smaller

From: Colin King
Date: Thu Aug 19 2021 - 08:17:00 EST


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

Don't populate the arrays wpa_oui and wps_oui on the stack but
instead them static const. Makes the object code smaller by 63 bytes:

Before:
text data bss dec hex filename
29453 5451 64 34968 8898 .../wireless/marvell/mwifiex/sta_ioctl.o

After:
text data bss dec hex filename
29356 5611 64 35031 88d7 ../wireless/marvell/mwifiex/sta_ioctl.o

(gcc version 10.3.0)
