Commit ed1cd6deb013 ("powerpc: Activate CONFIG_THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK")
removes the function current_thread_info(). It's wrong because the
function is used in non-arch code and is part of API.

For my series of arm64/ilp32, after applying the patch
https://github.com/norov/linux/commit/b269e51eee66ffec3008a3effb12363b91754e49
it causes build break.

This patch restores current_thread_info().
