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
