'struct i2c_algorithm' and 'struct virtio_device_id' are not modified in this driver. To do so, the prototype of i2c_adapter_init() has to be updated as well. Constifying this structure moves some data to a read-only section, so increase overall security, especially when the structure holds some function pointers.
