Philipp Rudo 8aec395b84 kernel/kexec_file.c: use read-only sections in arch_kexec_apply_relocations*
When the relocations are applied to the purgatory only the section the
relocations are applied to is writable.  The other sections, i.e.  the
symtab and .rel/.rela, are in read-only kexec_purgatory.  Highlight this
by marking the corresponding variables as 'const'.

While at it also change the signatures of arch_kexec_apply_relocations* to
take section pointers instead of just the index of the relocation section.
This removes the second lookup and sanity check of the sections in arch
code.
