This is physical address of Exynos4/5 CPUID register which cannot be
used here. And virtual address S5P_VA_CPUID also cannot be used here
since this will be called before paging_init when earlyprintk boot
param is used. So, with this change, earlyprintk does not work for
both Exynos4 and Exynos5.

Thanks,
Thomas.
