x86/vdso: Initialize the CPU/node NR segment descriptor earlier

Currently the CPU/node NR segment descriptor (GDT_ENTRY_CPU_NUMBER) is
initialized relatively late during CPU init, from the vCPU code, which
has a number of disadvantages, such as hotplug CPU notifiers and SMP
cross-calls.

Instead just initialize it much earlier, directly in cpu_init().

This reduces complexity and increases robustness.

[ mingo: Wrote new changelog. ]
