[PATCH 2/2] l2tp: constify inet6_protocol structures

From: Julia Lawall
Date: Fri Jul 28 2017 - 16:44:26 EST


The inet6_protocol structure is only passed as the first argument to
inet6_add_protocol or inet6_del_protocol, both of which are declared as
const. Thus the inet6_protocol structure itself can be const.

Also drop __read_mostly on the newly const structure.

Done with the help of Coccinelle.
