[PATCH] dca: make dca_class a static const structure

[Ivan Orlov <ivan.orlov0322@gmail.com>]

The driver core allows for struct class to be in read-only memory. Move
the dca_class structure to be declared at build time placing it into
read-only memory, instead of having to be dynamically allocated at boot
time.
