Subject: [PATCH RFC 09/10] sysfs: bin_attribute: add const read/write
 callback variants

To make it possible to put struct bin_attribute into read-only memory,
the sysfs core has to stop passing mutable pointers to the read() and
write() callbacks.
As there are numerous implementors of these callbacks throughout the
tree it's not possible to change all of them at once.
To enable a step-by-step transition, add new variants of the read() and
write() callbacks which differ only in the constness of the struct
bin_attribute argument.

As most binary attributes are defined through macros, extend these
macros to transparently handle both variants of callbacks to minimize
the churn during the transition.
As soon as all handlers are switch to the const variant, the non-const
one can be removed together with the transition machinery.
