tile: make __write_once a synonym for __read_mostly
This was really only useful for TILE64 when we mapped the kernel data with small pages. Now we use a huge page and we really don't want to map different parts of the kernel data in different ways. We retain the __write_once name in case we want to bring it back to life at some point in the future. Note that this change uncovered a latent bug where the "smp_topology" variable happened to always be aligned mod 8 so we could store two "int" values at once, but when we eliminated __write_once it ended up only aligned mod 4. Fix with an explicit annotation. Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
