MIPS: SMP: Constify smp ops

smp_ops providers do not modify their ops structures, so they should be
made const for robustness. Since currently the MIPS kernel is not mapped
with memory protection, this does not in itself provide any security
benefit, but it still makes sense to make this change.

There are also slight code size efficincies from the structure being
made read-only, saving 128 bytes of kernel text on a
pistachio_defconfig.
Before:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
7187239	1772752	 470224	9430215	 8fe4c7	vmlinux
After:
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
7187111	1772752	 470224	9430087	 8fe447	vmlinux
