Driver core: Constify struct sysfs_ops in struct kobj_type

Constify struct sysfs_ops.

This is part of the ops structure constification
effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al.

Benefits of this constification:

* prevents modification of data that is shared
(referenced) by many other structure instances
at runtime

* detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional)
modification attempts on archs that enforce
read-only kernel data at runtime

* potentially better optimized code as the compiler
can assume that the const data cannot be changed

* the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata
and therefore exclude them from false sharing
