Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: Add __pmem to $Sparse annotations

commit 61031952f4c8 ("arch, x86: pmem api for ensuring durability
of persistent memory updates") added a new __pmem annotation for
sparse verification.  Add __pmem to the $Sparse variable so
checkpatch can appropriately ignore uses of this attribute too.
