perf/core: Declare the __percpu attribute on non-deref types
Sparse reports the current declaration of two perf percpu variables with this warning: warning: incorrect type in initializer (different address spaces) expected void const [noderef] <asn:3>*__vpp_verify got struct perf_cpu_context *<noident> While it's normally perfectly fine to place GCC attributes anywhere in the definition, this particular attribute is for a checking compiler's such as Sparse's benefit, which doesn't want __percpu on pointers. So reorder the attribute to come after the structure type, not after the pointer type.
