x86/uaccess: Fix implicit cast of __user pointer

Browse source 
The first two arguments of __user_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() are:

 - @uval is a kernel pointer into which the old value should be stored
 - @ptr is the user pointer on which the cmpxchg should operate

This means that casting @uval to __typeof__(ptr) is wrong. Since @uval
is only used once inside the macro, just get rid of __uval and use
(uval) directly.
