locking, compiler.h: Cast away attributes in the WRITE_ONCE() magic

The kernel build bot showed a new warning triggered by commit:

  76695af2 ("locking, arch: use WRITE_ONCE()/READ_ONCE() in smp_store_release()/smp_load_acquire()")

because Sparse does not like WRITE_ONCE() accessing elements
from the (sparse) RCU address space:

  fs/afs/inode.c:448:9: sparse: incorrect type in initializer (different address spaces)
  fs/afs/inode.c:448:9:    expected struct afs_permits *__val
  fs/afs/inode.c:448:9:    got void [noderef] <asn:4>*<noident>

Solution is to force cast away the sparse attributes for the initializer
of the union in WRITE_ONCE().

(And as this now gets too long, also split the macro into multiple lines.)
