arm64: move sp_el0 and tpidr_el1 into cpu_suspend_ctx



When returning from idle, we rely on the fact that thread_info lives at
the end of the kernel stack, and restore this by masking the saved stack
pointer. Subsequent patches will sever the relationship between the
stack and thread_info, and to cater for this we must save/restore sp_el0
explicitly, storing it in cpu_suspend_ctx.

As cpu_suspend_ctx must be doubleword aligned, this leaves us with an
extra slot in cpu_suspend_ctx. We can use this to save/restore tpidr_el1
in the same way, which simplifies the code, avoiding pointer chasing on
the restore path (as we no longer need to load thread_info::cpu followed
by the relevant slot in __per_cpu_offset based on this).

This patch stashes both registers in cpu_suspend_ctx.
