percpu: fix __percpu annotation in asm-generic
The generic implementation of raw_cpu_generic_add_return() is:
#define raw_cpu_generic_add_return(pcp, val) \
({ \
typeof(&(pcp)) __p = raw_cpu_ptr(&(pcp)); \
\
*__p += val; \
*__p; \
})
where the 'pcp' argument is a __percpu lvalue.
There, the variable '__p' is declared as a __percpu pointer
the type of the address of 'pcp') but:
1) the value assigned to it, the return value of raw_cpu_ptr(), is
a plain (__kernel) pointer, not a __percpu one.
2) this variable is dereferenced just after while a __percpu
pointer is implicitly __noderef.
So, fix the declaration of the 'pcp' variable to its correct type:
the plain (non-percpu) pointer corresponding to pcp's address,
using the fact that typeof() ignores the address space and the
'noderef' attribute of its agument.
Same for raw_cpu_generic_xchg(), raw_cpu_generic_cmpxchg() &
raw_cpu_generic_cmpxchg_double().
This removes 209 warnings on ARM, 525 on ARM64, 220 on x86 &
more than 2600 on ppc64 (all of them with the default config).
