From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>

The returned string from rsxx_card_state_to_str is 'const',
but the other qualifier doesn't change anything here except
causing a warning with 'clang -Wextra':

drivers/block/rsxx/core.c:393:21: warning: 'const' type qualifier on return type has no effect [-Wignored-qualifiers]
static const char * const rsxx_card_state_to_str(unsigned int state)

Fixes: f37912039eb0 ("block: IBM RamSan 70/80 trivial changes.")

Perhaps this should also be converted to avoid any possible
dereference of strings with an invalid state.
