kernel/drivers/platform/x86/firmware_attributes_class.h, branch linux-6.9.yHosts the 0x221E linux distro kernel.https://universe.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel/atom?h=linux-6.9.y2024-03-12T10:48:13Zplatform/x86: make fw_attr_class constant2024-03-12T10:48:13ZRicardo B.

Since commit 43a7206b0963 ("driver core: class: make class_register() take
a const *"), the driver core allows for struct class to be in read-only
memory, so move the fw_attr_class structure to be declared at build time
placing it into read-only memory, instead of having to be dynamically
allocated at boot time.
