lockless_dereference() is planned to grow a sanity check to ensure that the input parameter is a pointer. __ref_is_percpu() passes in an unsinged long value which is a combination of a pointer and a flag. While it can be casted to a pointer lvalue, the casting looks messy and it's a special case anyway. Let's revert back to open-coding READ_ONCE() and explicit barrier. This doesn't cause any functional changes.
