Subject: [PATCH v4 7/7] ARM: Move thread_info into task_struct (v7 only)

This avoids many stack overflow attacks which modified the thread_info
structure by moving that into the task_struct as is done is almost all
other architectures.

This also involved removing the 'cpu' member from the thread_info
struct and using the one added to the task_struct instead by the
THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK code.

This code is currently enabled only for v7 hardware as most other ARM
architectures do not have the TPIDRPRW register that is used to
store the current value. It could probably be enabled for v6k
architectures as well, but I haven't tested that.

With the TPIDRPRW register, the kernel can identify the current
cpu. Without that register, there's a circular dependency between the
current cpu and 'current' — know one and you can find the
other. Leaving the thread_info in the kernel stack lets you find the
cpu number independently.
