arm64: Always load shadow stack pointer directly from the task struct
commit 2198d07c upstream. All occurrences of the scs_load macro load the value of the shadow call stack pointer from the task which is current at that point. So instead of taking a task struct register argument in the scs_load macro to specify the task struct to load from, let's always reference the current task directly. This should make it much harder to exploit any instruction sequences reloading the shadow call stack pointer register from memory.
