x86/percpu: Make CONFIG_USE_X86_SEG_SUPPORT work with sparse

Now that sparse builds enforce the usage of typeof_unqual() the casts in
__raw_cpu_read/write() cause sparse to emit tons of false postive
warnings:

 warning: cast removes address space '__percpu' of expression

Address this by annotating the casts with __force.
