[PATCH] IPv6: use "const" qualifier

["YOSHIFUJI Hideaki / 吉藤英明" <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org>]

Hello.

Specify some arguments of IPv6 address manipulation / testing functions
"const" qualifier.

Patch is against linux-2.5.64 + ChangeSet 1.1188.
This should be suitable for linux-2.4.x.

Thanks in advance.
