Simon Horman b9ff931f00 net: stmmac: xgmac: use #define for string constants
commit 1692b9775e745f84b69dc8ad0075b0855a43db4e upstream.

The cited commit introduces and uses the string constants dpp_tx_err and
dpp_rx_err. These are assigned to constant fields of the array
dwxgmac3_error_desc.

It has been reported that on GCC 6 and 7.5.0 this results in warnings
such as:

  .../dwxgmac2_core.c:836:20: error: initialiser element is not constant
   { true, "TDPES0", dpp_tx_err },

I have been able to reproduce this using: GCC 7.5.0, 8.4.0, 9.4.0 and 10.5.0.
But not GCC 13.2.0.

So it seems this effects older compilers but not newer ones.
As Jon points out in his report, the minimum compiler supported by
the kernel is GCC 5.1, so it does seem that this ought to be fixed.

It is not clear to me what combination of 'const', if any, would address
this problem.  So this patch takes of using #defines for the string
constants

Compile tested only.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
