If percpu pointer is const, __verify_pcpu_ptr() triggers warnings like
the following.

 drivers/net/loopback.c: In function 'loopback_get_stats':
 drivers/net/loopback.c:109: warning: initialization discards qualifiers from pointer target type

Fix it by adding const to the verification target pointer used in
__verify_pcpu_ptr().

The previous patch made sparse warn about percpu variables being used
directly without going through percpu accessors.  This patch
implements the other half - checking whether non percpu variable is
passed into percpu accessors.

We have to make __kernel "__attribute__((address_space(0)))" so we can
cast to it.

tj: * put_cpu_var() update.

    * Annotations added to dynamic allocator interface.

<content type='text'>
Now that the return from alloc_percpu is compatible with the address
of per-cpu vars, it makes sense to hand around the address of per-cpu
variables.  To make this sane, we remove the per_cpu__ prefix we used
created to stop people accidentally using these vars directly.

Now we have sparse, we can use that (next patch).

tj: * Updated to convert stuff which were missed by or added after the
      original patch.

    * Kill per_cpu_var() macro.

Make the following changes to remove some sparse warnings.

* Make DEFINE_PER_CPU_SECTION() declare __pcpu_unique_* before
  defining it.

* Annotate pcpu_extend_area_map() that it is entered with pcpu_lock
  held, releases it and then reacquires it.

* Make percpu related macros use unique nested variable names.

* While at it, add pcpu prefix to __size_call[_return]() macros as
  to-be-implemented sparse annotations will add percpu specific stuff
  to these macros.
