ARM: percpu: add SMP_ON_UP support
Permit the use of the TPIDRPRW system register for carrying the per-CPU offset in generic SMP configurations that also target non-SMP capable ARMv6 cores. This uses the SMP_ON_UP code patching framework to turn all TPIDRPRW accesses into reads/writes of entry #0 in the __per_cpu_offset array. While at it, switch over some existing direct TPIDRPRW accesses in asm code to invocations of a new helper that is patched in the same way when necessary. Note that CPU_V6+SMP without SMP_ON_UP results in a kernel that does not boot on v6 CPUs without SMP extensions, so add this dependency to Kconfig as well.
