fw_cfg: Constify struct kobj_type
This 'struct kobj_type' is not modified. It is only used in kobject_init_and_add() which takes a 'const struct kobj_type *ktype' parameter. Constifying this structure and moving it to a read-only section, and this can increase over all security. ``` [Before] text data bss dec hex filename 5974 1008 96 7078 1ba6 drivers/firmware/qemu_fw_cfg.o [After] text data bss dec hex filename 6038 944 96 7078 1ba6 drivers/firmware/qemu_fw_cfg.o ``` Signed-off-by: Hongbo Li <lihongbo22@huawei.com> Message-Id: <20240904011743.2010319-1-lihongbo22@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S.
