Subject: [PATCH] highmem: Make __kunmap_{local,atomic}() take "const void *"

Sometimes __kunmap_{local,atomic}() should take pointers to const void.
Currently their prototypes take pointers to void, therefore compilations
break in cases like the above-mentioned.

This is the output of GCC-12 when it encounters one those cases:

./linux/fs/btrfs/zstd.c:547:33: warning: passing
argument 1 of '__kunmap_local' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer
target type [-Wdiscarded-qualifiers]
  547 |   kunmap_local(workspace->in_buf.src);
      |                ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~
./linux/include/linux/highmem-internal.h:284:17:
note: in definition of macro 'kunmap_local'
  284 |  __kunmap_local(__addr);     \
      |                 ^~~~~~
./linux/include/linux/highmem-internal.h:92:41:
note: expected 'void *' but argument is of type 'const void *'
   92 | static inline void __kunmap_local(void *vaddr)
      |                                   ~~~~~~^~~~~

Make __kunmap_{local,atomic}() take pointers to const void.
