This is a simple and straight forward cleanup series that aims to make the
class structures in mips constant. This has been possible since 2023 [1].

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 mt_class structure to be declared at build time placing
it into read-only memory, instead of having to be dynamically allocated at
boot time.

KTODO: use device_register instead of device_create?

Crap can work. Given enough thrust pigs will fly, but it's not necessarily a
good idea. [ RFC1925, 2.3 ]
