uapi: move constants from <linux/kernel.h> to <linux/const.h>

Browse Source 
and include <linux/const.h> in UAPI headers instead of <linux/kernel.h>.

The reason is to avoid indirect <linux/sysinfo.h> include when using
some network headers: <linux/netlink.h> or others -> <linux/kernel.h>
-> <linux/sysinfo.h>.

This indirect include causes on MUSL redefinition of struct sysinfo when
included both <sys/sysinfo.h> and some of UAPI headers:
