Yeah, I think it's always running on CPU0 after the other CPUs are
taken down anyway.

We definitely *do* need to clear smpboot_control because we absolutely
want it using the temp_stack we explicitly put into initial_stack, not
finding its own idle thread.

The problem was that it was never being restored to STARTUP_SECONDARY
in the parallel modes, because that's a one-time setup in
native_smp_prepare_cpus(). So we can just restore it in
arch_thaw_secondary_cpus_begin() too, by working this into patch 6 of
the series.

(Usama, I think my tree is fairly out of date now so I'll let you do
that? Thanks!).
