cfg80211: mark ieee80211_hdrlen const
This function analyses only its single, value-passed argument, and has no side effects. Thus it can be const, which makes mac80211 smaller, for example: text data bss dec hex filename 362518 16720 884 380122 5ccda mac80211.ko (before) 362358 16720 884 379962 5cc3a mac80211.ko (after) a 160 byte saving in text size, and an optimisation because the function won't be called as often.
