Subject: [PATCH 4.4 212/266] x86/speculation: Mark string arrays const correctly

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>

commit 8770709f411763884535662744a3786a1806afd3 upstream.

checkpatch.pl muttered when reshuffling the code:
 WARNING: static const char * array should probably be static const char * const

Fix up all the string arrays.
