Thanks for the patch. The change has already been made by this patch:

commit 65058214f5c2ebe844916b92d1bece64fd00206e
Author: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@...6.fr>

    media: staging: media: atomisp: constify video_subdev structures
    
    These structures are both stored in fields of v4l2_subdev_ops
    structures, all of which are const, so these structures can be
    const as well.
    
    Done with the help of Coccinelle.
