This is part of the ops structure constification effort started by Arjan van de Ven et al.
Benefits of this constification:
* prevents modification of data that is shared (referenced) by many other structure instances at runtime
* detects/prevents accidental (but not intentional) modification attempts on archs that enforce read-only kernel data at runtime
* potentially better optimized code as the compiler can assume that the const data cannot be changed
* the compiler/linker move const data into .rodata and therefore exclude them from false sharing
