Modify the devlink region code in preparation for adding new operations on regions. Create a devlink_region_ops structure, and move the name pointer from within the devlink_region structure into the ops structure (similar to the devlink_health_reporter_ops). This prepares the regions to enable support of additional operations in the future such as requesting snapshots, or accessing the region directly without a snapshot. In order to re-use the constant strings in the mlx4 driver their declaration must be changed to 'const char * const' to ensure the compiler realizes that both the data and the pointer cannot change.

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.
