Krzysztof Kozlowski a2be37eedb firmware: exynos-acpm: Drop fake 'const' on handle pointer
All the functions operating on the 'handle' pointer are claiming it is a
pointer to const thus they should not modify the handle.  In fact that's
a false statement, because first thing these functions do is drop the
cast to const with container_of:

  struct acpm_info *acpm = handle_to_acpm_info(handle);

And with such cast the handle is easily writable with simple:

  acpm->handle.ops.pmic_ops.read_reg = NULL;

The code is not correct logically, either, because functions like
acpm_get_by_node() and acpm_handle_put() are meant to modify the handle
reference counting, thus they must modify the handle.  Modification here
happens anyway, even if the reference counting is stored in the
container which the handle is part of.

The code does not have actual visible bug, but incorrect 'const'
annotations could lead to incorrect compiler decisions.
