Subject: [PATCH] sched/idle: Micro-optimize the idle loop

References: bnc#978907 Scheduler performance -- idle
Patch-mainline: v4.15-rc1
Git-commit: 54b933c6c954a8b7b0c2b40a1c4d3f7279d11e22

Move the loop-invariant calculation of 'cpu' in do_idle() out of the loop body,
because the current CPU is always constant.

This improves the generated code both on x86-64 and ARM64:

x86-64:

Before patch (execution in loop):
	864:       0f ae e8                lfence
	867:       65 8b 05 c2 38 f1 7e    mov %gs:0x7ef138c2(%rip),%eax
	86e:       89 c0                   mov %eax,%eax
	870:       48 0f a3 05 68 19 08    bt  %rax,0x1081968(%rip)
	877:	   01

After patch (execution in loop):
	872:       0f ae e8                lfence
	875:       4c 0f a3 25 63 19 08    bt  %r12,0x1081963(%rip)
	87c:       01

ARM64:
