[PATCH 00/12] net: constify struct device_type usage

[Ricardo B. Marliere]

This is a simple and straight forward cleanup series that makes all device
types in the net subsystem constants. This has been possible since 2011 [1]
but not all occurrences were cleaned. I have been sweeping the tree to fix
them all.

I was not sure if I should send these squashed, but there are quite a few
changes so I decided to send them separately. Please let me know if that is
not desirable.

[PATCH 01/12] net: usbnet: constify the struct device_type usage

[Ricardo B. Marliere]

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