x86/percpu: Fix "const_pcpu_hot" version generation failure

Version generation for "const_pcpu_hot" symbol failed because genksyms
doesn't know the __seg_gs keyword. Effectively revert commit 4604c052b84d
("x86/percpu: Declare const_pcpu_hot as extern const variable") and
use this_cpu_read_const() instead to avoid "sparse: dereference of
noderef expression" warning when reading const_pcpu_hot.
