This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    platform/surface: aggregator: make ssam_bus_type constant and static

to my char-misc git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git
in the char-misc-next branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will also be merged in the next major kernel release
during the merge window.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Now that the driver core can properly handle constant struct bus_type,
move the ssam_bus_type variable to be a constant structure as well,
placing it into read-only memory which can not be modified at runtime.

It's also never used outside of
drivers/platform/surface/aggregator/bus.c so make it static and don't
export it as no one is using it.
