Hmm, my reasoning for this change was that non-const static data always feels
yucky (and it can't be const because of the dynamic irq field); but course you
could argue that it's fine for a platform driver because there can only be a
single instance.

Maybe have a const static at the toplevel, and copy that to a stack variable to
fill in the resources?

Best,
Matthias
