[PATCH RESEND 2/2] ARM: ThumbEE: Use cpuid macros to read ID_PFR0 for ThumbEE

The ThumbEE probe code uses inline assembly to read ID_PFR0 in order to
detect whether ThumbEE is implemented by the processor.

This patch replaces the inline asm with the read_cpuid_ext macro.

Resending these patches, rebased on v3.3. If there are no comments again
