While implementing this on the RISC-V JIT[1], I realized that reading the
cpu_number from the per-cpu variable is not the best way to do this on
arm64.

arm64 now has the cpu number in the thread_info and reading that would
be more efficient.

Implementation in this patch is emitting:

; int cpu = bpf_get_smp_processor_id();
mov     x7, #0xffff8000ffffffff
movk    x7, #0x8207, lsl #16   
movk    x7, #0x2008            
mrs     x10, tpidr_el1         
add     x7, x7, x10            
ldr     w7, [x7]               

If we do this in the JIT like I did for RISC-V[1]
We can emit:

; int cpu = bpf_get_smp_processor_id();
mrs     x10, sp_el0
ldr     w7, [x10, #24]

This gives ~ 10% improvement on glob-arr-inc and hash-inc compared to
3-4 % which this patch is providing. 

I will send v5 using this approach.
