[PATCH 2/2] x86: Move x86_cpu_to_apicid to the __read_mostly section

[Vlad Zolotarov <vlad@scalemp.com>]

From: Shai Fultheim <shai@scalemp.com>

x86_cpu_to_apicid is only written to during initialization. Benchmarks
show that moving it to the __read_mostly section helps avoid false
sharing on large multiprocessing systems.
