This patchset enables strict percpu address space checks via x86 named address space qualifiers. Percpu variables are declared in __seg_gs/__seg_fs named AS and kept named AS qualified until they are dereferenced via percpu accessor. This approach enables various compiler checks for cross-namespace variable assignments. Please note that sparse doesn't know anything about __typeof_unqual__() operator, so the usage of __typeof_unqual__() breaks sparse checking.
