[PATCH v2 1/6] RISC-V: Avoid using per cpu array for ordered booting

Currently both order booting and spinwait approach uses a per cpu
array to update stack & task pointer. This approach will not work for the
following cases.
1. If NR_CPUs are configured to be less than highest hart id.
2. A platform has sparse hartid.

This issue can be fixed for ordered booting as the booting cpu brings up
one cpu at a time using SBI HSM extension which has opaque parameter
that is unused until now.

Introduce a common secondary boot data structure that can store the stack
and task pointer. Secondary harts will use this data while booting up
to setup the sp & tp.
