Subject: [PATCH v2 6/9] sysctl: use const for typically used max/min proc sysctls
From: Xiaoming Ni <nixiaoming@...wei.com>
When proc_dointvec_minmax() or proc_doulongvec_minmax() are used we
are using the extra1 and extra2 parameters on the sysctl table only
for a min and max boundary, these extra1 and extra2 arguments are
then used for read-only operations. So make them const to reflect
this.
