Subject: [PATCH 1/2] err.h: Add ERR_PTR_PCPU(), PTR_ERR_PCPU() and IS_ERR_PCPU() functions
Add ERR_PTR_PCPU(), PTR_ERR_PCPU() and IS_ERR_PCPU() functions that
operate on pointers in the percpu address space.
These functions remove the need for (__force void *) function
argument casts (to avoid sparse -Wcast-from-as warnings).
The patch will also avoid future build errors due to pointer address
space mismatch with enabled strict percpu address space checks.
