    xen/spinlock: Fix UBSAN "load of address with insufficient space" in 
lock_prof_init()
    
    UBSAN complains:
    
      (XEN) 
================================================================================
      (XEN) UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in common/spinlock.c:794:10
      (XEN) load of address ffff82d040ae24c8 with insufficient space
      (XEN) for an object of type 'struct lock_profile *'
      (XEN) ----[ Xen-4.20-unstable  x86_64  debug=y ubsan=y  Tainted:   C    
]----
    
    This shows up with GCC-14, but not with GCC-12.  I have not bisected 
further.
    
    Either way, the types for __lock_profile_{start,end} are incorrect.
    
    They are an array of struct lock_profile pointers.  Correct the extern's
    types, and adjust the loop to match.
    
    No practical change.
