Compiling the kernel with gcc12.3 W=2 produces a warning:
In file included from linux-next/lib/vdso/getrandom.c:10,

To reproduce the issue before applying the patch:
make defconfig ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-
make vmlinux ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux- W=2
The existing implementation of the __get_unaligned_t and __put_unaligned_t
macros in include/vdso/unaligned.h uses a local variable named '__pptr'
which can lead to variable shadowing when these macros are used in
the same scope. This results in a -Wshadow warning during compilation.
To address this issue, we have renamed the local variables within
the macros to ensure uniqueness:
- In __get_unaligned_t, '__pptr' has been renamed to '__get_pptr'.
- In __put_unaligned_t, '__pptr' has been renamed to '__put_pptr'.
These changes prevent variable shadowing and eliminate the
-Wshadow warning, improving code readability and maintainability.

vdso: Address variable shadowing in macros
Compiling the kernel with gcc12.3 W=2 results in shadowing warnings:
warning: declaration of '__pptr' shadows a previous local [-Wshadow]
const struct { type x; } __packed *__pptr = (typeof(__pptr))(ptr);
note: in definition of macro '__put_unaligned_t'
__pptr->x = (val);
note: in expansion of macro '__get_unaligned_t'
__put_unaligned_t(type, __get_unaligned_t(type, src), dst);
__get_unaligned_t() and __put_unaligned_t() use a local variable named
'__pptr', which can lead to variable shadowing when these macros are used in
the same scope. This results in a -Wshadow warning during compilation.
To address this issue, rename the local variables within the macros to
ensure uniqueness.
