From: Wedson Almeida Filho <walmeida@microsoft.com>

The 's_xattr' field of 'struct super_block' currently requires a mutable
table of 'struct xattr_handler' entries (although each handler itself is
const). However, no code in vfs actually modifies the tables.

So this series changes the type of 's_xattr' to allow const tables, and
modifies existing file system to move their tables to .rodata. This is
desirable because these tables contain entries with function pointers in
them; moving them to .rodata makes it considerably less likely to be
modified accidentally or maliciously at runtime.

I found this while writing Rust abstractions for vfs.
