[PATCH] soundwire: bus: Make sdw_nwrite() data pointer argument const

Idiomatically, write functions should take const pointers to the
data buffer, as they don't change the data. They are also likely to
be called from functions that receive a const data pointer.
Internally the pointer is passed to function/structs shared with
the read functions, requiring a cast, but this is an implementation
detail that should be hidden by the public API.
