ARM: 9150/1: Fix PID_IN_CONTEXTIDR regression when THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK=y
The code that implements the rarely used PID_IN_CONTEXTIDR feature dereferences the 'task' field of struct thread_info directly, and this is no longer possible when THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK=y, as the 'task' field is omitted from the struct definition in that case. Instead, we should just cast the thread_info pointer to a task_struct pointer, given that the former is now the first member of the latter. So use a helper that abstracts this, and provide implementations for both cases.
