x86/percpu: Enable named address spaces for all capable GCC versions
Enable named address spaces also for GCC 6, GCC 7 and GCC 8 releases. These compilers all produce kernel images that boot without problems. Use compile-time test to detect compiler support for named address spaces. The test passes with GCC 6 as the earliest compiler version where the support for named address spaces was introduced.
