refscale: Constify struct ref_scale_ops

'struct ref_scale_ops' are not modified in these drivers.

Constifying this structure moves some data to a read-only section, so
increase overall security.

On a x86_64, with allmodconfig:
Before:
======
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  34231	   4167	    736	  39134	   98de	kernel/rcu/refscale.o

After:
=====
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  35175	   3239	    736	  39150	   98ee	kernel/rcu/refscale.o
