I'm sorry for your eyes, but since var occurs twice, isn't it better to do:

# define percpu_read(var)                                              \
  ({                                                                   \
       typeof(var) __pcpu_read_var__ = var;
               \
       typeof(per_cpu_var(__pcpu_read_var__)) __tmp_var__;                    \
       __tmp_var__ = get_cpu_var(__pcpu_read_var__);                           \
       put_cpu_var(__pcpu_read_var__);                                         \
       __tmp_var__;                                                    \
  })

and:

#define __percpu_generic_to_op(var, val, op)                           \
do {                                                                   \
       typeof(var) __pcpu_gto_var__ = var;
              \
       get_cpu_var(__pcpu_gto_var__) op val;
             \
       put_cpu_var(__pcpu_gto_var__);
             \
} while (0)
