arm64/mm: save memory access in check_and_switch_context() fast switch path

On arm64, smp_processor_id() reads a per-cpu `cpu_number` variable,
using the per-cpu offset stored in the tpidr_el1 system register. In
some cases we generate a per-cpu address with a sequence like:

  cpu_ptr = &per_cpu(ptr, smp_processor_id());

Which potentially incurs a cache miss for both `cpu_number` and the
in-memory `__per_cpu_offset` array. This can be written more optimally
as:

  cpu_ptr = this_cpu_ptr(ptr);

Which only needs the offset from tpidr_el1, and does not need to
load from memory.

The following two test cases show a small performance improvement measured
on a 46-cpus qualcomm machine with 5.8.0-rc4 kernel.

Test 1: (about 0.3% improvement)
    #cat b.sh
    make clean && make all -j138
    #perf stat --repeat 10 --null --sync sh b.sh

    - before this patch
     Performance counter stats for 'sh b.sh' (10 runs):

                298.62 +- 1.86 seconds time elapsed  ( +-  0.62% )

    - after this patch
     Performance counter stats for 'sh b.sh' (10 runs):

               297.734 +- 0.954 seconds time elapsed  ( +-  0.32% )

Test 2: (about 1.69% improvement)
     'perf stat -r 10 perf bench sched messaging'
        Then sum the total time of 'sched/messaging' by manual.

    - before this patch
      total 0.707 sec for 10 times
    - after this patch
      totol 0.695 sec for 10 times
