Both kfree_const() and kstrdup_const() use __start_rodata
and __end_rodata, which do not work for modules.  This is
especially important for kfree_const().  Stop exporting
these functions, as they cannot be used in the modules.

... and of course I forgot to commit the kstrdup_const() part.
Let me resend.
