Subject: [PATCH net-next 15/17] dccp: constify dccp_make_response() socket argument

Like tcp_make_synack() the only time we might change the socket is
when calling sock_wmalloc(), which is using atomic operation to
update sk->sk_wmem_alloc

Also use MAX_DCCP_HEADER as both IPv4/IPv6 use this value for max_header.
