Subject: [PATCH] [IA64] sn: make sn_screen_info const, static and __initconst

Make this structure static as it is only used in the file in which it is
defined. Make it const as it is only used during a copy operation. Make
it __initconst as this usage is during the init phase.

Structure found using Coccinelle and changes done by hand.
