of_device_uevent() does not modify the struct device * passed into it,
so make it a const * to enforce this.  Also the documentation for the
function was really wrong so fix that up at the same time.

Looks like I can take this one?

The same could be done for several other functions in of/device.c.

I need it for later patches I have coming that clean this up more.

But you can take it in your tree as well if you want to build on top of
it.

That would be good!
