Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for
watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net,
drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a
registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or
modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function.
Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of
proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata.
This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25c ("sysctl: treewide:
constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers") constified all the
proc_handlers.
Created this by running an spatch followed by a sed command:

In Xe, the perf layer allows capture of HW counter streams. These HW
counters are generally performance related but don't have to be necessarily
so. Also, the name "perf" is a carryover from i915 and is not preferred.
Here we propose the name "observation" for this common layer which allows
capture of different types of these counter streams.
v2: Rename observability layer to observation layer (Lucas/Rodrigo)
v3: Rename sysctl file to "observation_paranoid" (Jose)
Fixes: 52c2e956dc ("drm/xe/perf/uapi: "Perf" layer to support multiple perf counter stream types")
Fixes: fe8929bdf8 ("drm/xe/perf/uapi: Add perf_stream_paranoid sysctl")
