x86: make pda a percpu variable
[ Based on original patch from Christoph Lameter and Mike Travis. ] As pda is now allocated in percpu area, it can easily be made a proper percpu variable. Make it so by defining per cpu symbol from linker script and declaring it in C code for SMP and simply defining it for UP. This change cleans up code and brings SMP and UP closer a bit.
