To handle cpu down/up dynamically, arcn needs to support vmx off/on
dynamically. Following changes is introduced:
vmx_off will be used when down AP. It does:
- vmclear the mapped vcpu
- off vmx.
exec_vmxon_instr is updated to handle start and up AP both. It does
- if vmx was on on AP, load the vmxon_region saved. Otherwise,
allocate vmxon_region.
- if there is mapped vcpu, vmptrld mapped vcpu.

Per performance consideration, we don't flush vcpu context when doing
vcpu swithing (because it's only swithing between vcpu and idle).
But when enter S3, we need to call vmclear against all vcpus attached
to APs. We need to know which vcpu is attached with which pcpu.
This patch introduced API to get vcpu mapped to specific pcpu.

The current implementation of per_cpu relies on several non-c99 features,
and in additional involves arbitrary pointer arithmetic which is not MIS-
RA C friendly.
This patch introduces struct per_cpu_region which holds all the per_cpu
variables. Allocation of per_cpu data regions and access to per_cpu vari-
ables are greatly simplified, at the cost of making all per_cpu varaibl-
es accessible in files.
