x86/percpu: Use C for percpu read/write accessors

The percpu code mostly uses inline assembly. Using segment qualifiers
allows to use C code instead, which enables the compiler to perform
various optimizations (e.g. propagation of memory arguments). Convert
percpu read and write accessors to C code, so the memory argument can
be propagated to the instruction that uses this argument.

Some examples of propagations:

a) into sign/zero extensions:

the code improves from:

65 8a 05 00 00 00 00 mov %gs:0x0(%rip),%al
0f b6 c0 movzbl %al,%eax

to:

65 0f b6 05 00 00 00 movzbl %gs:0x0(%rip),%eax
00

and in a similar way for:

movzbl %gs:0x0(%rip),%edx
movzwl %gs:0x0(%rip),%esi
movzbl %gs:0x78(%rbx),%eax

movslq %gs:0x0(%rip),%rdx
movslq %gs:(%rdi),%rbx

b) into compares:

the code improves from:

65 8b 05 00 00 00 00 mov %gs:0x0(%rip),%eax
a9 00 00 0f 00 test $0xf0000,%eax

to:

65 f7 05 00 00 00 00 testl $0xf0000,%gs:0x0(%rip)
00 00 0f 00

and in a similar way for:

testl $0xf0000,%gs:0x0(%rip)
testb $0x1,%gs:0x0(%rip)
testl $0xff00,%gs:0x0(%rip)

cmpb $0x0,%gs:0x0(%rip)
cmp %gs:0x0(%rip),%r14d
cmpw $0x8,%gs:0x0(%rip)
cmpb $0x0,%gs:(%rax)

c) into other insns:

the code improves from:

1a355: 83 fa ff cmp $0xffffffff,%edx
1a358: 75 07 jne 1a361 <...>
1a35a: 65 8b 15 00 00 00 00 mov %gs:0x0(%rip),%edx
1a361:

to:

1a35a: 83 fa ff cmp $0xffffffff,%edx
1a35d: 65 0f 44 15 00 00 00 cmove %gs:0x0(%rip),%edx
1a364: 00

The above propagations result in the following code size
improvements for current mainline kernel (with the default config),
compiled with:

# gcc (GCC) 12.3.1 20230508 (Red Hat 12.3.1-1)
