vdso_data_mapping is never modified, so mark it as const.

vdso_total_pages, vdso_data_page, vdso_text_mapping and cntvct_ok are
initialized by vdso_init(), thereafter are read only.

The fact that they are read only after init makes them candidates for
__ro_after_init declarations.

Signed-off-by: Jisheng Zhang <jszhang@marvell.com>

Since v1:
  - use __ro_after_init instead of __read_mostly
  - apply __ro_after_init for vdso_total_pages and cntvct_ok as well
