Subject: [PATCH 5/5] driver core: device_get_devnode() should take a const *

device_get_devnode() should take a constant * to struct device as it
does not modify it in any way, so modify the function definition to do
this and move it out of device.h as it does not need to be exposed to
the whole kernel tree.
