Mark the static struct file_operations in drivers/char as const. Making
them const prevents accidental bugs, and moves them to the .rodata section
so that they no longer do any false sharing; in addition with the proper
debug option they are then protected against corruption..

The following fixes some issues with the last mpc8xx_wdt update:
- Adds missing #include <asm/io.h>
- Use "uint __iomem" pointer for in_be32/out_be32

This updates m8xx_wdt as follows:
1) Remove now obsolete fpos check in the write() function. The driver is
currently non functional due to this bug.
2) Use in/out macros for register access.
3) Allows m8xx_wdt to use a kernel timer instead of the builtin RTC/PIT
for keep-alive trigger (which is responsible for servicing the watchdog
until an userspace application takes over). For instance Cyclades PRxK
boards (MPC 855T based) have a non-functional internal RTC/PIT unit.
Behaviour for boards with RTC/PIT is unchaged.
4) The last change required moving the RTCSC register setting code
to a weak function which can be overriden by board specific files.
Otherwise the timer init code trashes the register making it impossible
for m8xx_wdt to detect the situation.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
