Lots of functions in mm/highmem.c do not write to the given pointers and do not call functions that take non-const pointers and can therefore be constified. This includes functions like kunmap() which might be implemented in a way that writes to the pointer (e.g. to update reference counters or mapping fields), but currently are not. kmap() on the other hand cannot be made const because it calls set_page_address() which is non-const in some architectures/configurations.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
