'struct nla_policy' and 'struct match_table_t' are not modified in this
driver.

Constifying these structures moves some data to a read-only section, so
increase overall security, especially when the structure holds some
function pointers, which is the case of struct nla_policy.

On a x86_64, with allmodconfig:
Before:
======
    text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
   93188	   6933	    338	 100459	  1886b	drivers/target/target_core_user.o

After:
=====
    text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
   93508	   6581	    338	 100427	  1884b	drivers/target/target_core_user.o
