Looking through the sparse warnings, I noticed that we were getting warnings about dropping const qualifiers in get_user calls. This took a while to figure out: it turns out that if you pass a const pointer in, sparse will complain when we drop the const qualifier deep inside the __get_user_ macros. This simple series fixes that, squashing over 60 warnings.
