PATCH 1/1 pinctrl: rza1: constify gpio_chip structure
This structure is only used to copy into other structure, so declare it as const.
This issue was detected using Coccinelle and the following semantic patch:
@r disable optional_qualifier@

static struct gpio_chip i@p = { ... };

In the following log you can see a significant difference in the code size and data segment, hence in the dec segment. This log is the output of the size command, before and after the code change:
