This prepares *of_device_id.data becoming const. Without this change
the following warning would occur:

Ack all of these assuming you test built (I didn't).
"all" means the two mediabay patches? And yes, they are all built
tested.
                                                     Do you need me to
carry any of this via the powerpc tree ?
The patch that adds the const to of_device_id depends[1] on this patch.
And the other mediabay is only valid after that const is added. So the
easiest is if the series is pulled in one go. Arnd intended to let Linus
pull it for 3.6-rc1 but it was missed because of a communication
problem. So I intend to get it in during the 3.7 merge window.

Best regards
Uwe

[1] it's only a soft depend, because the result is "only" a warning, but
still.
