Functions working with attribute_groups provided by <linux/device.h>
work with const attribute_group. These attribute_group structures do not
change at runtime so mark them as const.

File size before:
 text     data     bss     dec     hex filename
 14216    7304     832   22352    5750
drivers/staging/unisys/visorbus/visorbus_main.o

File size after:
 text     data     bss     dec     hex filename
 14408    7112     832   22352    5750
drivers/staging/unisys/visorbus/visorbus_main.o

This change was made with the help of Coccinelle.
