[PATCH 6/7] (Optional) implement smp_processor_id() as a per-cpu var

[Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>]

This implements smp_processor_id() as a per-cpu variable.  The generic
code expects it in thread_info still, so we can't remove it from
there, but reducing smp_processor_id() from 9 bytes/3 insns to 6
bytes/1 insn is a nice micro-optimization.
