Subject: [PATCH] mei: make mei_class a static const structure
Date:   Thu, 10 Aug 2023 23:46:52 +0400
Message-Id: <20230810194652.27004-1-ivan.orlov0322@gmail.com>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Precedence: bulk

Now that the driver core allows for struct class to be in read-only
memory, move the mei_class structure to be declared at build time
placing it into read-only memory, instead of having to be dynamically
allocated at boot time.
