char: ipmi: constify ipmi_smi_handlers structures

Declare ipmi_smi_handlers structures as const as they are only passed as
an argument to the function ipmi_register_smi. This argument is of type
const, so ipmi_smi_handlers structures having similar properties can be
declared const too.
Done using Coccinelle:

identifier i;

static struct ipmi_smi_handlers i@p={...};
