Subject: [RFC PATCH 8/8] arm64: barrier: Use '__unqual_scalar_typeof' for acquire/release macros

Passing volatile-qualified pointers to the arm64 implementations of the
load-acquire/store-release macros results in a re-load from the stack
and a bunch of associated stack-protector churn due to the temporary
result variable inheriting the volatile semantics thanks to the use of
'typeof()'.

Define these temporary variables using 'unqual_scalar_typeof' to drop
the volatile qualifier in the case that they are scalar types.
