This patch adds the necessary code to patch a running SMP kernel
at runtime to improve performance when running on a single CPU.

The current implementation offers two patching variants:
- Unwanted assembler statements like locking functions are overwritten
   with NOPs
- Some pdtlb and pitlb instructions are patched to become pdtlb,l and
   pitlb,l which only flushes the CPU-local tlb entries instead of
   broadcasting the flush to other CPUs in the system and thus may
   improve performance.

I'm not sure that optimizing the TLB handler is safe.  There is no guarantee that a TLB exception
won't occur when updating the handler.

Possibly, the best way is to generate both up and smp exception tables and switch to the up table
when there is only one CPU online.
