Since commit aed65af1cc ("drivers: make device_type const"), the driver
core can properly handle constant struct device_type. Make sure that new
usages of the struct already enter the tree as const.

All usages of include/linux of these are const pointers, and all instances
in the kernel except one, that are not const can be made const (patches
have been posted for those separately).

Using const is generally a good idea.
Julia Lawall has created a list of always const and almost always const
structs in the kernel sources.

Add the most frequently used (> 50 cases) that are almost always or
always const.
