Landed in mainline as db3c65bc3a13 on 2021-12-28.
The percpu variables hyperv_pcpu_input_arg and hyperv_pcpu_output_arg have been incorrectly defined since their inception. The __percpu qualifier should be associated with the void * (i.e., a pointer), not with the target of the pointer. This distinction makes no difference to gcc and the generated code, but sparse correctly complains. Fix the definitions in the interest of general correctness in addition to making sparse happy. No functional change.
