Add the const qualifier to all the ctl_tables in the tree except for
watchdog_hardlockup_sysctl, memory_allocation_profiling_sysctls,
loadpin_sysctl_table and the ones calling register_net_sysctl (./net,
drivers/inifiniband dirs). These are special cases as they use a
registration function with a non-const qualified ctl_table argument or
modify the arrays before passing them on to the registration function.
Constifying ctl_table structs will prevent the modification of
proc_handler function pointers as the arrays would reside in .rodata.
This is made possible after commit 78eb4ea25c ("sysctl: treewide:
constify the ctl_table argument of proc_handlers") constified all the
proc_handlers.
Created this by running an spatch followed by a sed command:

An empty sysctl table entry was inadvertently left behind for observation
sysctl. The breaks on 6.11 with the following errors:
[ 219.654850] sysctl table check failed: dev/xe/(null) procname is null
[ 219.654862] sysctl table check failed: dev/xe/(null) No proc_handler
Drop the empty entry.

In Xe, the perf layer allows capture of HW counter streams. These HW
counters are generally performance related but don't have to be necessarily
so. Also, the name "perf" is a carryover from i915 and is not preferred.
Here we propose the name "observation" for this common layer which allows
capture of different types of these counter streams.
v2: Rename observability layer to observation layer (Lucas/Rodrigo)
v3: Rename sysctl file to "observation_paranoid" (Jose)
