Currently, we initialize the "current" pointer in the PACA (which
is used by the "current" macro in the kernel) before calling
setup_system(). That means that early_setup() is called with
current still "NULL" which is -not- a good idea. It happens to
work so far but breaks with lockdep when early code calls printk.

This changes it so that all PACAs are statically initialized with
__current pointing to the init task. For non-0 CPUs, this is fixed
up before use.
