[PATCH] PCI: switchtec: make switchtec_class constant

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jun 10 2024 - 04:21:10 EST


Now that the driver core allows for struct class to be in read-only
memory, we should make all 'class' structures declared at build time
placing them into read-only memory, instead of having to be dynamically
allocated at runtime.
