[PATCH] const initdata.

From: Dave Jones (davej@suse.de)
Date: Thu Aug 23 2001 - 18:55:14 EST

As defined in in Rusty's kernel-hacking doc, __initdata must not be
marked as const. Patch below does this for the PCI subsystem.

*nb*, This kind of patch needs to be done in quite a few other
places too.

regards,

Dave.
