[PATCH] staging: ks7010: honor 'const' qualifier

[Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>]

The recently-added ks7010 driver produces an annoying build warning:

drivers/staging/ks7010/ks7010_config.c: In function 'ks_wlan_read_config_file':
drivers/staging/ks7010/ks7010_config.c:263:8: error: assignment discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [-Werror=discarded-qualifiers]

The problem here is that it assigns the firmware data to a non-const
variable, and then goes on to modify it, which is clearly not the intended
use case.

The only modification is to set the last byte to '\0', and as far as
I can tell, this modification is unnecessary, as the parser always compares
against the end pointer, rather than relying on zero-termination.

This patch therefore removes the modification of the const data and marks
all the pointers 'const to avoid the warning.
