[PATCH] staging: sm750fb: add missing const to g_fbmode array

[Eyüp Kerem Baş]

Checkpatch reported a warning that the static const char * array should probably be static const char * const. This patch adds the missing const keyword to g_fbmode array, moving it to read-only memory.

Please keep a maximum of 75 characters per line. Next time when
submitting a patch use "$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict <patch>" to
catch things like this.

Thanks,
