Replace some unnecessary absolute references with relative ones. Also,
to prepare for runtime relocation, which occurs with the caches on,
defer taking the absolute address of cpu_resume_after_mmu() until after
the MMU is enabled.

The above is dangerous. adr_l expands to more than one instruction which
is not what ALT_SMP() was designed for. Here it might happen to work
anyway because it is combined with ALT_UP_B() but with ALT_UP() it
wouldn't. This is a mistake waiting to happen.
OK. I will use the opencoded sequence instead in this case. I.e.,

-       ALT_SMP(ldr r0, =mpidr_hash)
+0:     ALT_SMP(adr r0, 2f)
        ALT_UP_B(1f)
+       ldr     r1, [r0]
+       add     r0, r0, r1

and

 ENDPROC(__cpu_suspend)
+       .align  2
+2:     .long   mpidr_hash - .
        .ltorg
