[PATCH 4/7] ARM: Use hack from powerpc to get current cpu number

When we enable THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK, the cpu number will disappear from
thread_info and reappear in task_struct. As we cannot include
linux/sched.h in asm/smp.h, there's no way to use that struct type in
the raw_smp_processor_id macro. Instead, a hack from the powerpc code
is used. This pulls the TI_CPU offset out of asm-offsets.h and uses
that to find the cpu value.
