THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK moved the CPU field out of thread_info, but this causes some issues on architectures that define raw_smp_processor_id() in terms of this field, due to the fact that #include'ing linux/sched.h to get at struct task_struct is problematic in terms of circular dependencies. Given that thread_info and task_struct are the same data structure anyway when THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK=y, let's move it back so that having access to the type definition of struct thread_info is sufficient to reference the CPU number of the current task. Note that this requires THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK's definition of the task_thread_info() helper to be updated, as task_cpu() takes a pointer-to-const, whereas task_thread_info() (which is used to generate lvalues as well), needs a non-const pointer. So make it a macro instead.

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 Restructured Text 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.
