Subject: [PATCH] x86/percpu: Unify arch_raw_cpu_ptr() defines

When building a 32 bit VDSO for a 64 bit kernel, games are played with
CONFIG_X86_64. {this,raw}_cpu_read_8() macros are conditionally defined
on CONFIG_X86_64 and when CONFIG_X86_64 is undefined in fake_32bit_build.h
various build failures in generic percpu header files can happen. To make
things worse, the build of 32 bit VDSO for a 64 bit kernel grew dependency
on arch_raw_cpu_ptr() macro and the build fails if arch_raw_cpu_ptr()
macro is not defined.

To mitigate these issues, x86 carefully defines arch_raw_cpu_ptr() to
avoid any dependency on raw_cpu_read_8() and thus CONFIG_X86_64. W/o
segment register support, the definition uses size-agnostic MOV asm
mnemonic and hopes that _ptr argument won't ever be 64 bit size on
32 bit targets (although newer GCCs warn for this situation with
"unsupported size for integer register"), and w/ segment register
support the definition uses size-agnostic __raw_cpu_read() macro.

Fortunately, raw_cpu_read() is not used in 32 bit VDSO for a 64 bit kernel.
However, we can't simply omit the definition of arch_raw_cpu_read(),
since the build will fail when building vdso/vdso32/vclock_gettime.o.

The patch defines arch_raw_cpu_ptr to BUILD_BUG() when BUILD_VDSO32_64
macro is defined. This way, we are sure that arch_raw_cpu_ptr() won't
actually be used in 32 bit VDSO for a 64 bit kernel, but it is still
defined to prevent build failure.

Finally, we can unify arch_raw_cpu_ptr() between builds w/ and w/o
x86 segment register support, substituting two tricky macro definitions
with a straightforward implementation.

There is no size difference and no difference in number of this_cpu_off
accesses between patched and unpatched kernel when the kernel is built
either w/ and w/o segment register support.
