arch/tile: remove bogus performance optimization
We were re-homing the initial task's kernel stack on the boot cpu, but in fact it's better to let it stay globally homed, since that task isn't bound to the boot cpu anyway. This is more of a general cleanup than an actual performance optimization, but it removes code, which is a good thing. :-) Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
