Inline calls to bpf_get_smp_processor_id() helper in the JIT by emitting
a read from struct thread_info. The SP_EL0 system register holds the
pointer to the task_struct and thread_info is the first member of this
struct. We can read the cpu number from the thread_info.
Here is how the ARM64 JITed assembly changes after this commit:

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
