squashfs: fix percpu address space issues in decompressor_multi_percpu.c

When strict percpu address space checks are enabled, then current direct
casts between the percpu address space and the generic address space fail
the compilation on x86_64 with:

decompressor_multi_percpu.c: In function `squashfs_decompressor_create':
decompressor_multi_percpu.c:49:16: error: cast to generic address space pointer from disjoint `__seg_gs' address space pointer

decompressor_multi_percpu.c: In function `squashfs_decompressor_destroy':
decompressor_multi_percpu.c:64:25: error: cast to `__seg_gs' address space pointer from disjoint generic address space pointer

decompressor_multi_percpu.c: In function `squashfs_decompress':
decompressor_multi_percpu.c:82:25: error: cast to `__seg_gs' address space pointer from disjoint generic address space pointer

Add intermediate casts to unsigned long, as advised in [1] and [2].

Side note: sparse still requires __force when casting from the percpu
address space, although the documentation [2] allows casts to unsigned
long without __force attribute.

Found by GCC's named address space checks.

There were no changes in the resulting object file.
