[RFC PATCH 1/6] ARM: entry: preserve thread_info pointer in switch_to

[Ard Biesheuvel]

Tweak the UP stack protector handling code so that the thread info
pointer is preserved in R7 until set_current is called. This is needed
for a subsequent patch that implements THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK and
set_current for UP as well.

This also means we will prefer the per-task protector on UP systems that
implement the thread ID registers, so tweak the preprocessor
conditionals to reflect this.
