Without CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK, core code maintains thread_info::cpu
and arch specific code can use this to build raw_smp_processor_id().
With CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK, core code maintains task_struct::cpu
and arch specific code cannot access this due to header file circular
dependency.

Instead, we can maintain a percpu variable containing the cpu number.

This also means that cpu numbers obtained using smp_processor_id cannot
be used to set_my_cpu_offset. Use task_cpu(current) instead to get the
cpu in those cases.

Without any patches in this patchset, raw_smp_processor_id() was :-
	mov     r3, sp
	bic     r3, r3, #8128
	bic     r3, r3, #63
	ldr     r0, [r3, #16]

When thread_info is stored in sp^ as per the first patch in this series,
it becomes :-
	sub	sp, sp, #4
	stmia	sp, {sp}^
	ldr	r2, [sp]
	add	sp, sp, #4
	ldr	r2, [r2, #16]

Finally, when cpu is made a percpu variable and fetched using
raw_cpu_ptr() :-
	movw	r2, #4096	; 0x1000
	movt	r2, #32918	; 0x8096
	mrc	15, 0, r0, cr13, cr0, {4}
	ldr	r2, [r2, r0]

Note that once the thread_info is moved off of the stack, the sequence
of instructions used to fetch the cpu number would be the third sequence
using raw_cpu_ptr().
