Colin Ian King c57391f415 bcma: make arrays pwr_info_offset and sprom_sizes static const, shrinks object size
Arrays pwr_info_offset and sprom_sizes can be make static const rather
than populating them on the stack. Shrinks object size by 236 bytes.

Before:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  11300	   1320	     64	  12684	   318c	drivers/bcma/sprom.o

After:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  10904	   1480	     64	  12448	   30a0	drivers/bcma/sprom.o

(gcc version 9.2.1, amd64)

TODO

Broadcom introduced new bus as replacement for older SSB. It is based on AMBA,
however from programming point of view there is nothing AMBA specific we use.

Standard AMBA drivers are platform specific, have hardcoded addresses and use
AMBA standard fields like CID and PID.

In case of Broadcom's cards every device consists of:
1) Broadcom specific AMBA device. It is put on AMBA bus, but can not be treated
   as standard AMBA device. Reading it's CID or PID can cause machine lockup.
2) AMBA standard devices called ports or wrappers. They have CIDs (AMBA_CID)
   and PIDs (0x103BB369), but we do not use that info for anything. One of that
   devices is used for managing Broadcom specific core.

Addresses of AMBA devices are not hardcoded in driver and have to be read from
EPROM.

In this situation we decided to introduce separated bus. It can contain up to
16 devices identified by Broadcom specific fields: manufacturer, id, revision
and class.
