Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const
moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential
dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to
these shared resources.

The recent fix 0506d4068bad834aab1141b5dc5e748eb175c6b3 made obvious that
error values were not being propagated through the AX.25 stack. To help
with that this patch marks all kmalloc users in the AX.25, NETROM and
ROSE stacks as __must_check.

This is the net/ part of the big kfree cleanup patch.

Ax2asc was still using a static buffer for all invocations which isn't
exactly SMP-safe. Change ax2asc to take an additional result buffer as
the argument. Change all callers to provide such a buffer.

o Brown paperbag bug - ax25_findbyuid() was always returning a NULL pointer
as the result. Breaks ROSE completly and AX.25 if UID policy set to deny.
o While the list structure of AX.25's UID to callsign mapping table was
properly protected by a spinlock, it's elements were not refcounted
resulting in a race between removal and usage of an element.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
