x86/percpu: Fix this_cpu_read()

Browse source 
Eric reported that a sequence count loop using this_cpu_read() got
optimized out. This is wrong, this_cpu_read() must imply READ_ONCE()
because the interface is IRQ-safe, therefore an interrupt can have
changed the per-cpu value.

Fixes: 7c3576d261 ("[PATCH] i386: Convert PDA into the percpu section")
