commit 57c82954e77f ("arm64: make cpu number a percpu variable")
created this percpu variable and included <asm/percpu.h> in <asm/smp.h>

Now we are removing the percpu variable cpu_number from smp.h, so there
is no need to keep percpu.h in smp.h

I feel users of DECLARE_PER_CPU_[...], etc. should include percpu.h and
not smp.h as it makes reading the code more easier and can thwart build
issues in the future, when headers are changed. 

Thanks,
