Subject: [PATCH] dm space map metadata: constify dm_space_map structures

Declare dm_space_map structures as const as they are only passed as an
argument to the function memcpy. This argument is of type const void *,
so dm_space_map structures having this property can be declared as
const.

   5139	      0	      0	   5139	   1413 dm-space-map-metadata.o
