arm64: patch_text: Fixup last cpu should be master
commit 31a099dbd91e69fcab55eef4be15ed7a8c984918 upstream. These patch_text implementations are using stop_machine_cpuslocked infrastructure with atomic cpu_count. The original idea: When the master CPU patch_text, the others should wait for it. But current implementation is using the first CPU as master, which couldn't guarantee the remaining CPUs are waiting. This patch changes the last CPU as the master to solve the potential risk.
