[PATCH 2/2] ARM: shmobile: Move shmobile_smp_{mpidr, fn, arg}[] from .text to .data

When CONFIG_ARM_KERNMEM_PERMS=y and CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y, the kernel
crashes during system suspend:

    Freezing user space processes ... (elapsed 0.004 seconds) done.
    Freezing remaining freezable tasks ... (elapsed 0.002 seconds)
    done.
    PM: suspend of devices complete after 111.948 msecs
    PM: late suspend of devices complete after 1.086 msecs
    PM: noirq suspend of devices complete after 11.576 msecs
    Disabling non-boot CPUs ...
    Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task!
    1014ec ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task!
    CPU0: stopping

This happens because the .text section is marked read-only, while the
arrays shmobile_smp_mpidr[], shmobile_smp_fn[], and shmobile_smp_arg[]
are being written to.

Fix this by moving these arrays from the .text to the .data section.
This requires accessing them through a pointer after virtual to physical
translation.
