x86/percpu: Rewrite arch_raw_cpu_ptr() to be easier for compilers to optimize

Implement arch_raw_cpu_ptr() as a load from this_cpu_off and then
add the ptr value to the base. This way, the compiler can propagate
addend to the following instruction and simplify address calculation.

E.g.: address calcuation in amd_pmu_enable_virt() improves from:

    48 c7 c0 00 00 00 00	mov    $0x0,%rax
	87b7: R_X86_64_32S	cpu_hw_events

    65 48 03 05 00 00 00	add    %gs:0x0(%rip),%rax
    00
	87bf: R_X86_64_PC32	this_cpu_off-0x4

    48 c7 80 28 13 00 00	movq   $0x0,0x1328(%rax)
    00 00 00 00

to:

    65 48 8b 05 00 00 00	mov    %gs:0x0(%rip),%rax
    00
	8798: R_X86_64_PC32	this_cpu_off-0x4
    48 c7 80 00 00 00 00	movq   $0x0,0x0(%rax)
    00 00 00 00
	87a6: R_X86_64_32S	cpu_hw_events+0x1328

The compiler also eliminates additional redundant loads from
this_cpu_off, reducing the number of percpu offset reads
from 1668 to 1646 on a test build, a -1.3% reduction.
