[PATCH] PM: fix suspend_set_ops() to take const pointer

[PATCH] PM: fix suspend_set_ops() to take const pointer

[Kevin Hilman]

checkpatch warns that pointers for certain structs should be const,
and platform_suspend_ops is one of those structs.  If you follow this
suggestion you trade a checkpatch warning for a compiler warning of
the form:

   warning: passing argument 1 of 'suspend_set_ops' discards qualifiers from pointer target type

Fix suspend_set_ops() to take a const pointer so everyone expects
const.

Applies to v2.6.37, but also applies cleanly to suspend-2.6/linux-next

Oops, plese disregard.  This is already fixed in linux-next.
