Subject: [PATCH 1/5] block: make PCI device id constant

From: Márton Németh <nm127@...email.hu>

The id_table field of the struct pci_driver is constant in <linux/pci.h>
so it is worth to make the initialization data also constant.

The semantic match that finds this kind of pattern is as follows:
