arm64: restore get_current() optimisation
Commit c02433dd ("arm64: split thread_info from task stack") inverted the relationship between get_current() and current_thread_info(), with sp_el0 now holding the current task_struct rather than the current thead_info. The new implementation of get_current() prevents the compiler from being able to optimize repeated calls to either, resulting in a noticeable penalty in some microbenchmarks. This patch restores the previous optimisation by implementing get_current() in the same way as our old current_thread_info(), using a non-volatile asm statement.
