x86/kgdb: use IS_ERR_PCPU() macro
Patch series "Enable strict percpu address space checks", v4. Enable 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 current version of sparse doesn't know anything about __typeof_unqual__() operator. Avoid the usage of __typeof_unqual__() when sparse checking is active to prevent sparse errors with unknowing keyword. The proposed patch by Dan Carpenter to implement __typeof_unqual__() handling in sparse is located at: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/5b8d0dee-8fb6-45af-ba6c-7f74aff9a4b8@stanley.mountain/ This patch (of 6): Use IS_ERR_PCPU() when checking the error pointer in the percpu address space. This macro adds intermediate cast to unsigned long when switching named address spaces. The patch will avoid future build errors due to pointer address space mismatch with enabled strict percpu address space checks.
