x86, um: actually mark system call tables readonly

Commit a074335 ("x86, um: Mark system call tables readonly") was supposed to mark the sys_call_table in UML as RO by adding the const, but it doesn't have the desired effect as it's nevertheless being placed into the data section since __cacheline_aligned enforces sys_call_table being placed into .data..cacheline_aligned instead. We need to use the ____cacheline_aligned version instead to fix this issue.
