[Bug tapsets/10975] New: cpuid() context tapset function unused and duplicate

["mjw at redhat dot com" <sourceware-bugzilla at sourceware dot org>]

tapset/context.stp has:

    // cpuid() is not documented
    function cpuid:long () %{ /* pure */
            THIS->__retvalue = smp_processor_id();
    %}

Which is identical (except for not being unprivileged) to:

    /**
     * sfunction cpu - Returns the current cpu number.
     */
    function cpu:long () %{ /* pure */ /* unprivileged */
            THIS->__retvalue = smp_processor_id();
    %}

cpuid() is not used anywhere in the sources, documentation or examples.

Should we just nuke it? Or do we want to keep it for compatibility reasons?
