[PATCH 1/2] ath5k: constify stuff

[PATCH 1/2] ath5k: constify stuff

[Jiri Slaby]

Make some structures const to place them in .rodata, since we won't
change them.

Most important parts of objdump -h:
-  0 .text         00011170
+  0 .text         00011140
-  5 .rodata       0000828e
+  5 .rodata       0000895e
- 13 .data         00000560
+ 13 .data         00000110
- 14 .devinit.data 00000260

[PATCH 2/2] ath5k: don't change mac in eeprom_read_mac on error

[Jiri Slaby]

Do not touch mac parameter passed to ath5k_eeprom_read_mac unless
we are sure we have correct address. I.e. when returning error, do
not change it.

While at it, use '= {}' compiler trick for memsetting mac_d.
