cpu: Introduce smt_lowest()
Recent CPUs have introduced a lower SMT priority. This uses the Linux pattern of executing priority nops in descending order to get a simple portable way to put the CPU into lowest SMT priority. Introduce smt_lowest() and use it in place of smt_very_low and smt_low ; smt_very_low sequences.
