[RFC PATCH v2 08/12] KVM: Allow kvm_device_ops to be const

Currently a kvm_device_ops structure cannot be const without triggering compiler warnings. However the structure doesn't need to be written to and, by marking it const, it can be read-only in memory. Add some more const keywords to allow this.
