PATCH 1/1 acpi: const-ify functions

Will const a couple of functions and variables. This is extracted from grsecurity (with only a slight modification to limit a line to 80 chars).

Patch is against linux-acpi-2.6 git.

Similar patches have been sent in the past but not applied, supposedly because they weren't sent to subsystem maintainers. (I may continue to send similar extracts to other subsystems)

Why don't they do it themselves? :^)

Signed-off-by should be before --- -- it must make into changelog.

It maybe better to call proc_create_date() by hand (and even handle errors gracefully?
