This driver creates a number of const structures that it stores in
the data field of an of_device_id array.
The data field of an of_device_id structure has type const void *, so
there is no need for a const-discarding cast when putting const values
into such a structure.
Furthermore, adding const to the declaration of the location that
receives a const value from such a field ensures that the compiler
will continue to check that the value is not modified. The
const-discarding cast on the extraction from the data field is thus
no longer needed.
Done using Coccinelle.

Heiko, you okay with the patch?
Looks good to me and does not seem to contain any changes related
to actual functionality, so
