Add a smp_ops interface.  This abstracts the API defined by
<linux/smp.h> for use within arch/i386.  The primary intent is that it
be used by a paravirtualizing hypervisor to implement SMP, but it
could also be used by non-APIC-using sub-architectures.

This is related to CONFIG_PARAVIRT, but is implemented unconditionally
since it is simpler that way and not a highly performance-sensitive
interface.
