mm: constify shmem related test functions for improved const-correctness

Patch series "mm: establish const-correctness for pointer parameters", v6.

This series is to improved const-correctness in the low-level
memory-management subsystem, which provides a basis for further
constification further up the call stack (e.g.  filesystems).

I started this work when I tried to constify the Ceph filesystem code, but
found that to be impossible because many "mm" functions accept non-const
pointers, even though they modify nothing.

This patch (of 12):

We select certain test functions which either invoke each other, functions
that are already const-ified, or no further functions.

It is therefore relatively trivial to const-ify them, which provides a
basis for further const-ification further up the call stack.
