__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.

Please include this in the btrfs tree if/when [2/2] is added.

Yes, agreed. Please take both through btrfs.
