ARM: 8178/1: fix set_tls for !CONFIG_KUSER_HELPERS
 
Joachim Eastwood reports that commit fbfb872f5f41 "ARM: 8148/1: flush
TLS and thumbee register state during exec" causes a boot-time crash
on a Cortex-M4 nommu system:

Freeing unused kernel memory: 68K (281e5000 - 281f6000)
Unhandled exception: IPSR = 00000005 LR = fffffff1

[<2800a327>] (show_stack) from [<2800a963>] (__invalid_entry+0x4b/0x4c)

The problem is that set_tls is attempting to clear the TLS location in
the kernel-user helper page, which isn't set up on V7M.

Fix this by guarding the write to the kuser helper page with
a CONFIG_KUSER_HELPERS ifdef.
