ARM: 9151/1: Thumb2: avoid __builtin_thread_pointer() on Clang
If available, we use the __builtin_thread_pointer() helper to get the value of the TLS register, to help the compiler understand that it doesn't need to reload it every time we access 'current'. Unfortunately, Clang fails to emit the MRC system register read directly when building for Thumb2, and instead, it issues a call to the __aeabi_read_tp helper, which the kernel does not provide, and so this result in link failures at build time. So create a special case for this, and emit the MRC directly using an asm() block, just like we do when the helper is not available to begin with.
