Subject: [PATCH 09/11] cgroup: drop const from @buffer of cftype->write_string()

cftype->write_string() just passes on the writeable buffer from kernfs
and there's no reason to add const restriction on the buffer.  The
only thing const achieves is unnecessarily complicating parsing of the
buffer.  Drop const from @buffer.
