Subject: [PATCH 08/62] bnx2x: Use static const

Using static const generally increases object text and decreases data size.
It also generally decreases overall object size.

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 147632	    349	  34240	 182221	  2c7cd	drivers/net/bnx2x/bnx2x_main.o.old
 147588	    349	  34240	 182177	  2c7a1	drivers/net/bnx2x/bnx2x_main.o.new

Changed bnx2x_set_mac_addr_gen to use const *
