Current state of the sysctl constification effort

[Thomas Weißschuh]

Hi Joel, Hi Luis,

most of the sysctl handler preparation patches have been picked up by
the subsystem maintainers and are available in -next.

Only two are missing:

* utsname: constify ctl_table arguments of utility function [0]
* sysctl: constify ctl_table arguments of utility function [1]

Both of them are going through the sysctl tree anyways.

With this done it should be possible to also queue up 
sysctl: treewide: constify the ctl_table argument of handlers [2]
for the bots to chew on in -next.

My local builds are still succeeding on the last submitted version of
the patch.
