driver core: mark async_driver as a const *

Within struct device_private, mark the async_driver * as const as it is
never modified.  This requires some internal-to-the-driver-core
functions to also have their parameters marked as constant, and there is
one place where we cast _back_ from the const pointer to a real one, as
the driver core still wants to modify the structure in a number of
remaining places.
