percpu area using gs segment
This speeds up smp again, by storing the struct processor in a percpu area and avoiding an expensive cpu_number every call of current_processor(), as well as getting the cpu_number by an offset into the percpu area. Untested on 64 bit and work remains to use other percpu arrays. TESTED: (NCPUS=8) -smp 1 boots to login shell ~2x slower than uniprocessor TESTED: (NCPUS=8) -smp 2 boots to INIT but hangs there TESTED: (NCPUS=8) -smp 4 gets stuck seemingly within rumpdisk and hangs TESTED: (NCPUS=1) uniprocessor is a bit faster than normal Message-Id: <20230924103428.455966-3-damien@zamaudio.com>
