nohz: Protect smp_processor_id() in tick_nohz_task_switch()
I saw following error when testing the latest nohz code on Power: [ 85.295384] BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: rsyslogd/3493 [ 85.295396] caller is .tick_nohz_task_switch+0x1c/0xb8 [ 85.295402] Call Trace: [ 85.295408] [c0000001fababab0] [c000000000012dc4] .show_stack+0x110/0x25c (unreliable) [ 85.295420] [c0000001fababba0] [c0000000007c4b54] .dump_stack+0x20/0x30 [ 85.295430] [c0000001fababc10] [c00000000044eb74] .debug_smp_processor_id+0xf4/0x124 [ 85.295438] [c0000001fababca0] [c0000000000d7594] .tick_nohz_task_switch+0x1c/0xb8 [ 85.295447] [c0000001fababd20] [c0000000000b9748] .finish_task_switch+0x13c/0x160 [ 85.295455] [c0000001fababdb0] [c0000000000bbe50] .schedule_tail+0x50/0x124 [ 85.295463] [c0000001fababe30] [c000000000009dc8] .ret_from_fork+0x4/0x54 The code below moves the test into local_irq_save/restore section to avoid the above complaint.
