Subject: [RFC PATCH 5/8] sched: move CPU field back into thread_info if THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK=y

From: Ard Biesheuvel <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2021 14:10:33 +0200

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.
