Subject: [PATCH] auxdisplay: constify charlcd_ops.

charlcd_ops are not supposed to change at runtime. All functions
working with charlcd_ops provided by <misc/charlcd.h> work with
const charlcd_ops. So mark the non-const structs as const.

File size before:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  12750	    560	    362	  13672	   3568	drivers/auxdisplay/panel.o

File size After adding 'const':
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  12942	    368	    362	  13672	   3568	drivers/auxdisplay/panel.o
