In the functions unbind_store() and bind_store(), a struct bus_type *
should be a const one, as the driver core bus functions used by this
variable are expecting the pointer to be constant, and these functions
do not modify the pointer at all.

Note, this is a patch that is a prepatory cleanup as part of a larger
series of patches that is working on resolving some old driver core
design mistakes.  It will build and apply cleanly on top of 6.3-rc2 on
its own, but I'd prefer if I could take it through my driver-core tree
so that the driver core changes can be taken through there for 6.4-rc1.
