[PATCH v2] cxl: make cxl_bus_type constant
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Jul 01 2025 - 08:10:01 EST
Now that the driver core can properly handle constant struct bus_type,
move the cxl_bus_type variable to be a constant structure as well,
placing it into read-only memory which can not be modified at runtime.
