ARM: 8597/1: VDSO: put RO and RO after init objects into proper sections
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.
