coresight: configfs: Constify struct config_item_type
'struct config_item_type' is not modified in this driver.
These structures are only used with config_group_init_type_name() which
takes a "const struct config_item_type *" as a 3rd argument or with
struct config_group.cg_item.ci_type which is also a "const struct
config_item_type *".
Constifying this structure moves some data to a read-only section, so
increase overall security, especially when the structure holds some
function pointers.
On a x86_64, with allmodconfig:
Before:
======
text data bss dec hex filename
4904 1376 136 6416 1910 drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-syscfg-configfs.o
After:
=====
text data bss dec hex filename
5264 1120 16 6400 1900 drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-syscfg-configfs.o
