perf/core: Declare the __percpu attribute on non-deref types

Sparse reports the current declaration of two perf percpu variables
with this warning:

  warning: incorrect type in initializer (different address spaces)
         expected void const [noderef] <asn:3>*__vpp_verify
         got struct perf_cpu_context *<noident>

While it's normally perfectly fine to place GCC attributes anywhere
in the definition, this particular attribute is for a checking
compiler's such as Sparse's benefit, which doesn't want __percpu
on pointers.

So reorder the attribute to come after the structure type, not after
the pointer type.
