To use pointer authentication in the kernel, we'll need to switch keys
in the entry assembly. This patch moves the pointer auth keys into
thread_info to make this possible.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Can we actually fold this into patch 7? It also leaves the door open to
allowing per-thread keys.
