Subject: [PATCH 10/13] x86_64: make pda a percpu variable

As pda is now allocated in percpu area, it can easily be made a proper
percpu variable.  Make it so by defining per cpu symbol from linker
script and declaring it in C code for SMP and simply defining it for
UP.  This change cleans up code and brings SMP and UP closer a bit.

A lot of this patch is taken from Mike Travis' "x86_64: Fold pda into
per cpu area" and "x86_64: Reference zero-based percpu variables
offset from gs" patches.
