#1703099 — [PATCH] ACPI / dock: constify attribute_group structures.

Subject[PATCH] ACPI / dock: constify attribute_group structures.
Message-ID<uaocG-rc-15@gated-at.bofh.it>
attribute_group are not supposed to change at runtime. All functions
working with attribute_group provided by <linux/sysfs.h> work with
const attribute_group. So mark the non-const structs as const.

Somebody else sent an analogous patch earlier, so I'm going to take that one.
