Will const a couple of functions and variables. This is extracted
from grsecurity (with only a slight modification to limit a line
to 80 chars).
Patch is against linux-acpi-2.6 git.
Similar patches have been sent in the past but not applied,
supposedly because they weren't sent to subsystem maintainers.
(I may continue to send similar extracts to other subsystems)
