In the match() callback, the struct device_driver * should not be
changed, so change the function callback to be a const *. This is one
step of many towards making the driver core safe to have struct
device_driver in read-only memory.
Because the match() callback is in all busses, all busses are modified
to handle this properly. This does entail switching some container_of()
calls to container_of_const() to properly handle the constant *.
For some busses, like PCI and USB and HV, the const * is cast away in
the match callback as those busses do want to modify those structures at
this point in time (they have a local lock in the driver structure.)
That will have to be changed in the future if they wish to have their
struct device * in read-only-memory.

Since commit d492cc2573a0 ("driver core: device.h: make struct
bus_type a const *"), the driver core can properly handle constant
struct bus_type, move the tc_bus_type variable to be a constant
structure as well, placing it into read-only memory which can not be
modified at runtime.

Unlike its PCI counterpart, tc_match_device() was never used outside
the TURBOchannel bus code.

This is a set of changes to convert support for the TURBOchannel bus to the
driver model. It implements the usual set of calls similar to what other bus
drivers have: tc_register_driver(), tc_unregister_driver(), etc. All the
platform-specific bits have been removed and headers from asm-mips/dec/ have
been merged into linux/tc.h, which should be included by drivers.
