[PATCH] x86: make reboot task only run on the appropriate processor

Currently system always reboot after below message when execute "kexec -e".

[    0.572119] smpboot: Booting Node   0, Processors  #   1 OK

In commit 1b3a5d02ee070c8f9943333b9b6370f486601e0f, reboot= handling was
moved to kerne/reboot.c. However, the code to migrate current thread to
reboot cpu was removed. That cause this incorrect kexec behavior.

Now add that code block back.
