Subject: [PATCH 07/13] x86_64: use static _cpu_pda array

_cpu_pda array first uses statically allocated storage in data.init
and then switches to allocated bootmem to conserve space.  However,
after folding pda area into percpu area, _cpu_pda array will be
removed completely.  Drop the reallocation part to simplify the code
for soon-to-follow changes.
