[SPARC64]: Fix booting on non-zero cpu.
The early per-cpu handling needs a slight tweak to work when booting on a non-zero cpu. We got away with this for a long time, but can't any longer as now even printk() calls functions (cpu_clock() for example) that thus make early references to per-cpu variables. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
