[PATCH 02/12] net: dsa: constify the struct device_type usage

From: Ricardo B. Marliere <hidden>
Date: 2024-02-17 20:13:02

Since commit aed65af1cc2f ("drivers: make device_type const"), the driver
core can properly handle constant struct device_type. Move the dsa_type
variable to be a constant structure as well, placing it into read-only
memory which can not be modified at runtime.
