nfc: nci: constify several pointers to u8, sk_buff and other structs
Several functions receive pointers to u8, sk_buff or other structs but do not modify the contents so make them const. This allows doing the same for local variables and in total makes the code a little bit safer. This makes const also data passed as "unsigned long opt" argument to nci_request() function. Usual flow for such functions is: 1. Receive "u8 *" and store it (the pointer) in a structure allocated on stack (e.g. struct nci_set_config_param), 2. Call nci_request() or __nci_request() passing a callback function an the pointer to the structure via an "unsigned long opt", 3. nci_request() calls the callback which dereferences "unsigned long opt" in a read-only way. This converts all above paths to use proper pointer to const data, so entire flow is safer.
