x86/alternatives: Fix build warning

Fixes these warnings:

 arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c: In function 'alternatives_text_reserved':
 arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c:402: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast
 arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c:402: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast
 arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c:405: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast
 arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c:405: warning: comparison of distinct pointer types lacks a cast

Caused by:

  2cfa197: ftrace/alternatives: Introducing *_text_reserved functions

Changes in v2:
  - Use local variables to compare, instead of type casts.
