[PATCH v3 6/9] usb: storage: realtek_cr: Use const for constant arrays
From: Jonathan Neuschäfer via B4 Relay
Date: Fri Feb 28 2025 - 10:13:28 EST
From: Jonathan Neuschäfer <j.ne@xxxxxxxxxx>
These arrays are only read, never modified.
Declaring data as const makes it easier to see what's going on, and can
prevent unintended writes through placement in a read-only section.
Signed-off-by: Jonathan Neuschäfer <j.ne@xxxxxxxxxx>

V3:
- elaborate why const is a good idea
