ARM: orion: fix orion_ge00_switch_board_info initialization
A section type mismatch warning shows up when building with LTO, since orion_ge00_mvmdio_bus_name was put in __initconst but not marked const itself: include/linux/of.h: In function 'spear_setup_of_timer': arch/arm/mach-spear/time.c:207:34: error: 'timer_of_match' causes a section type conflict with 'orion_ge00_mvmdio_bus_name' static const struct of_device_id timer_of_match[] __initconst = { ^ arch/arm/plat-orion/common.c:475:32: note: 'orion_ge00_mvmdio_bus_name' was declared here static __initconst const char *orion_ge00_mvmdio_bus_name = "orion-mii"; ^ As pointed out by Andrew Lunn, it should in fact be 'const' but not '__initconst' because the string is never copied but may be accessed after the init sections are freed. To fix that, I get rid of the extra symbol and rewrite the initialization in a simpler way that assigns both the bus_id and modalias statically. I spotted another theoretical bug in the same place, where d->netdev[i] may be an out of bounds access, this can be fixed by moving the device assignment into the loop.
