The driver core is changing to pass some pointers as const, so move
to_ssam_device() to use container_of_const() to handle this change.
to_ssam_device() now properly keeps the const-ness of the pointer passed
into it, while as before it could be lost.

A small note in addition to the comment by Hans: I think it might be a
good idea to convert the to_ssam_device_driver() function as well. I
could also send this in as a follow-up patch.
Sure, that can be a follow-on patch as it's not needed here.
