GS base is used to find per-CPU data in the kernel. But when GS base is
unknown, the per-CPU base can be found from the per_cpu_offset table with a
CPU NR. The CPU NR is extracted from the limit field of the CPUNODE entry
in GDT, or by the RDPID instruction. This is a prerequisite for using
FSGSBASE in the low level entry code.
Also, add the GAS-compatible RDPID macro as binutils 2.21 does not support
it. Support is added in version 2.27.
