x86/paravirt: Fix bool return type for PVOP_CALL()

Commit:

  3cded417 ("x86/paravirt: Optimize native pv_lock_ops.vcpu_is_preempted()")

introduced a paravirt op with bool return type [*]

It turns out that the PVOP_CALL*() macros miscompile when rettype is
bool. Code that looked like:

   83 ef 01                sub    $0x1,%edi
   ff 15 32 a0 d8 00       callq  *0xd8a032(%rip)        # ffffffff81e28120 <pv_lock_ops+0x20>
   84 c0                   test   %al,%al

ended up looking like so after PVOP_CALL1() was applied:

   83 ef 01                sub    $0x1,%edi
   48 63 ff                movslq %edi,%rdi
   ff 14 25 20 81 e2 81    callq  *0xffffffff81e28120
   48 85 c0                test   %rax,%rax

Note how it tests the whole of %rax, even though a typical bool return
function only sets %al, like:

  0f 95 c0                setne  %al
  c3                      retq

This is because ____PVOP_CALL() does:

		__ret = (rettype)__eax;

and while regular integer type casts truncate the result, a cast to
bool tests for any !0 value. Fix this by explicitly truncating to
sizeof(rettype) before casting.

[*] The actual bug should've been exposed in commit:
      446f3dc8 ("locking/core, x86/paravirt: Implement vcpu_is_preempted(cpu) for KVM and Xen guests")
    but that didn't properly implement the paravirt call.
