Subject: [PATCH] rcar_fdp1: constify vb2_ops structure

Check for vb2_ops structures that are only stored in the ops field of a
vb2_queue structure. That field is declared const, so vb2_ops structures
that have this property can be declared as const also.

This issue was detected using Coccinelle and the following semantic patch:

@r disable optional_qualifier@
identifier i;
position p;
@@
static struct vb2_ops i@p = { ... };

@ok@
identifier r.i;
struct vb2_queue e;
position p;
@@
e.ops = &i@p;

@bad@
position p != {r.p,ok.p};
identifier r.i;
struct vb2_ops e;
@@
e@i@p

@depends on !bad disable optional_qualifier@
identifier r.i;
@@
static
+const
struct vb2_ops i = { ... };
