Subject: [PATCH 3/3] staging: greybus: fw-management: make fw_mgmt_class constant

Now that the driver core allows for struct class to be in read-only
memory, making all 'class' structures to be declared at build time
placing them into read-only memory, instead of having to be dynamically
allocated at load time.
