arch/arm64: Add ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS Kconfig option

The arm64 architecture uses either an LL/SC loop (old systems) or an LSE
stadd instruction (new systems) to implement this_cpu_add(), both of which
are NMI safe.  This means that the old and more-efficient srcu_read_lock()
may be used in NMI context, without the need for srcu_read_lock_nmisafe().
Therefore, add the new Kconfig option ARCH_HAS_NMI_SAFE_THIS_CPU_OPS to
arch/arm64/Kconfig, which will cause NEED_SRCU_NMI_SAFE to be deselected,
thus preserving the current srcu_read_lock() behavior.
