rtc: armada38x: make struct rtc_class_ops const
Armada38x wants to modify its rtc_class_ops to remove the interrupt handling when there is no usable interrupt, but this means we leave function pointers in writable memory. Since rtc_class_ops is small, arrange to have two instances, one for when we have interrupts, and one for when we have none, both marked const. This allows the compiler to place them in read-only memory, which is better than placing them in __ro_after_init. Thanks to Bhumika Goyal <bhumirks@gmail.com> for pointing out that the structure was writable and submitting a patch to add __ro_after_init.
