Inline the calls to bpf_get_smp_processor_id() in the riscv bpf jit.
RISCV saves the pointer to the CPU's task_struct in the TP (thread
pointer) register. This makes it trivial to get the CPU's processor id.
As thread_info is the first member of task_struct, we can read the
processor id from TP + offsetof(struct thread_info, cpu).

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.
