ARM: smp: Store current pointer in TPIDRURO register if available
Now that the user space TLS register is assigned on every return to user
space, we can use it to keep the 'current' pointer while running in the
kernel. This removes the need to access it via thread_info, which is
located at the base of the stack, but will be moved out of there in a
subsequent patch.
Use the __builtin_thread_pointer() helper when available - this will
help GCC understand that reloading the value within the same function is
not necessary, even when using the per-task stack protector (which also
generates accesses via the TLS register). For example, the generated
code below loads TPIDRURO only once, and uses it to access both the
stack canary and the preempt_count fields.

f8d4 8004 ldr.w r8, [r4, #4] <- preempt count
