Joel Granados 1751f872cc treewide: const qualify ctl_tables where applicable 
Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for
watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net,
drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a
registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or
modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function.

Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of
proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata.
This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25c ("sysctl: treewide:
constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers") constified all the
proc_handlers.

Created this by running an spatch followed by a sed command:
Spatch:
    virtual patch

    @
    depends on !(file in "net")
    disable optional_qualifier
    @

    identifier table_name != {
      watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl,
      iwcm_ctl_table,
      ucma_ctl_table,
      memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
      loadpin_sysctl_table
    };
    @@

    + const
    struct ctl_table table_name [] = { ... };

sed:
    sed --in-place \
      -e "s/struct ctl_table .table = &uts_kern/const struct ctl_table *table = \&uts_kern/" \
      kernel/utsname_sysctl.c
