locking/local_lock: fix _Generic() matching of local_trylock_t

Michael Larabel reported [1] a nginx performance regression in v6.15-rc3
and bisected it to commit 51339d99c013 ("locking/local_lock, mm: replace
localtry_ helpers with local_trylock_t type")

The problem is the _Generic() usage with a default association that
masks the fact that "local_trylock_t *" association is not being
selected as expected.  Replacing the default with the only other
expected type "local_lock_t *" reveals the underlying problem:

  include/linux/local_lock_internal.h:174:26: error: ‘_Generic’ selector of type ‘__seg_gs local_lock_t *’ is not compatible with any association

The local_locki's are part of __percpu structures and thus the __percpu
attribute is needed to associate the type properly.  Add the attribute
and keep the default replaced to turn any further mismatches into
compile errors.

The failure to recognize local_try_lock_t in __local_lock_release()
means that a local_trylock[_irqsave]() operation will set tl->acquired
to 1 (there's no _Generic() part in the trylock code), but then
local_unlock[_irqrestore]() will not set tl->acquired back to 0, so
further trylock operations will always fail on the same cpu+lock, while
non-trylock operations continue to work - a lockdep_assert() is also not
being executed in the _Generic() part of local_lock() code.

This means consume_stock() and refill_stock() operations will fail
deterministically, resulting in taking the slow paths and worse
performance.
