Subject: [PATCH] x86/percpu: Fix assembly in variable_test_bit

I was trying to compile the kernel with -Og for a better debugging
experience. One side effect of this that the compiler will no longer
do as aggressive dead code elimination, so assembly blocks that were
previously dce'd remained in the final assembly. There's quite a number
of places in the kernel that rely on this dce happening, so it's not
clear that this should be a supported configuration. Nevertheless,
in this particular instance, I believe it found a real issue. In
particular, I believe the `__percpu_arg` macro should be on the
memory operand rather than the immediate. As far as I can tell,
this was never correct, but just happened to be always dce'd out
because the cpu_test macro is generally only used with constant
`nr` arguments.
