lockdep: Fix per-cpu static objects
Since commit 383776fa7527 ("locking/lockdep: Handle statically initialized PER_CPU locks properly") we try to collapse per-cpu locks into a single class by giving them all the same key. For this key we choose the canonical address of the per-cpu object, which would be the offset into the per-cpu area. This has two problems: - there is a case where we run !0 lock->key through static_obj() and expect this to pass; it doesn't for canonical pointers. - 0 is a valid canonical address. Cure both issues by redefining the canonical address as the address of the per-cpu variable on the boot CPU. Since I didn't want to rely on CPU0 being the boot-cpu, or even existing at all, track the boot CPU in a variable.
