cpu/x86/mp: pass pointers to structures for AP callbacks
In order to extend the MP callback infrastructure prepare for easier changes by making the AP callback get signalled by a single pointer to a local variable on the signaller's stack. When the APs see the callback they will copy the structure to a local variable and then set the acknowledgement by clearing out the slot. The reading and writing to the slots were implemented using inline assembly which forces a memory access and a compiler barrier.
