Subject: [PATCH v5 1/2] highmem: Make __kunmap_{local,atomic}() take "const void *"

__kunmap_ {local,atomic}() currently take pointers to void. However, this
is semantically incorrect, since these functions do not change the memory
their arguments point to.

Therefore, make this semantics explicit by modifying the
__kunmap_{local,atomic}() prototypes to take pointers to const void.

As a side effect, compilers will likely produce more efficient code.
