Subject: [PATCH v1] x86/platform/intel-mid: Revert "Make 'bt_sfi_data' const"

The annoying static analyzer follow up patches make a pain rather then
fixing issues.

The one done by commit 276c87054751

("x86/platform/intel-mid: Make 'bt_sfi_data' const")

made an obvious regression [BugLink] since the struct bt_sfi_data used
as a temporary container for important data that is used to fill
'parent' and 'name' fields in struct platform_device_info.

That's why revert the commit which had been apparently done w/o reading
the code.
