[PATCH v2] arch/powerpc: Rework local_paca to avoid LTO warnings

From: Alastair D'Silva <alastair at d-silva.org>
When building an LTO kernel, the existing code generates warnings:
./arch/powerpc/include/asm/paca.h:37:30: warning: register of
‘local_paca’ used for multiple global register variables
register struct paca_struct *local_paca asm("r13");
^
./arch/powerpc/include/asm/paca.h:37:30: note: conflicts with
‘local_paca’
This patch reworks local_paca into an inline getter & setter function,
which addresses the warning.
Changelog:
V2
- Address whitespace issues
- keep new implementation close to where the old implementation was
