[PATCH 1/2] arm64: remove current_top_of_stack()

We no longer use current_top_of_stack() on arm64, so it can be removed.
We introduced current_top_of_stack() for STACKLEAK in commit:
0b3e336601b82c6a ("arm64: Add support for STACKLEAK gcc plugin")
... then we figured out the intended semantics were unclear, and
reworked it in commit:
e85094c31ddb794a ("arm64: stackleak: fix current_top_of_stack()")
... then we removed the only user in commit:
0cfa2ccd285d98ad ("stackleak: rework stack high bound handling")
Given that it's no longer used, and it's very easy to misuse, this patch
removes current_top_of_stack(). For the moment, on_thread_stack() is
left where it is as moving it will change some header dependencies.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.
