x86/espfix: Init espfix on the boot CPU side

Browse source

As we alloc pages with GFP_KERNEL in init_espfix_ap() which is
called before we enable local irqs, so the lockdep sub-system
would (correctly) trigger a warning about the potentially
blocking API.

So we allocate them on the boot CPU side when the secondary CPU is
brought up by the boot CPU, and hand them over to the secondary
CPU.

And we use alloc_pages_node() with the secondary CPU's node, to
make sure the espfix stack is NUMA-local to the CPU that is
going to use it.
