powerpc/64: Simplify __secondary_start paca->kstack handling In __secondary_start() we load the thread_info of the idle task of the secondary CPU from current_set[cpu], and then convert it into a stack pointer before storing that back to paca->kstack. As pointed out in commit f761622e5943 ("powerpc: Initialise paca->kstack before early_setup_secondary") it's important that we initialise paca->kstack before calling the MMU setup code, in particular slb_initialize(), because it will bolt the SLB entry for the kstack into the SLB. However we have already setup paca->kstack in cpu_idle_thread_init(), since commit 3b5750644b2f ("[POWERPC] Bolt in SLB entry for kernel stack on secondary cpus") (May 2008). It's also in cpu_idle_thread_init() that we initialise current_set[cpu] with the thread_info pointer, so there is no issue of the timing being different between the two. Therefore the initialisation of paca->kstack in __setup_secondary() is completely redundant, so remove it. This has the added benefit of removing code that runs in real mode, and is therefore restricted by the RMO, and so opens the way for us to enable THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK.
