[PATCH v2] hexdump: Make test data really const

From: Geert Uytterhoeven
Date: Tue Apr 21 2015 - 06:13:11 EST


The test data arrays, containing pointers to test strings, are never
modified, so they can be const, too. Hence mark them "const" and
"__initconst".

This moves 28 pointers from ".init.data" to ".init.rodata".

- Drop changing the "result" variable, as this got fixed in commit
