container_of: Document container_of() is not to be used in new code
There is a warning in the kerneldoc documentation of container_of() that
constness of its ptr argument is lost. While this is a valid suggestion
container_of_const() should be used instead, the vast majority of new
code still uses container_of():
$ git diff v6.13 v6.14|grep container_of\(|wc -l
646
$ git diff v6.13 v6.14|grep container_of_const|wc -l
9
Make an explicit recommendation to use container_of_const().
