Subject: linux-next: driver-core tree build failure

Hi Greg,

Today's linux-next build (x86_64 allmodconfig) failed like this:

drivers/mtd/mtdcore.c:220: error: expected '{' before 'const'
drivers/mtd/mtdcore.c:227: error: 'mtd_groups' undeclared here (not in a function)

Caused by the update to commit ba87b739a1f5dd545679d886b8d193cdede991cf
("driver model: constify attribute groups").

I have applied the patch below for today.
