Subject: netfilter: nft_queue: use raw_smp_processor_id()

From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>


[ Upstream commit c2e756ff9e699865d294cdc112acfc36419cf5cc ]

Using smp_processor_id() causes splats with PREEMPT_RCU:

[19379.552780] BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: ping/32389
[19379.552793] caller is debug_smp_processor_id+0x17/0x19
[...]
[19379.552823] Call Trace:
[19379.552832]  [<ffffffff81274e9e>] dump_stack+0x67/0x90
[19379.552837]  [<ffffffff8129a4d4>] check_preemption_disabled+0xe5/0xf5
[19379.552842]  [<ffffffff8129a4fb>] debug_smp_processor_id+0x17/0x19
[19379.552849]  [<ffffffffa07c42dd>] nft_queue_eval+0x35/0x20c [nft_queue]

No need to disable preemption since we only fetch the numeric value, so
let's use raw_smp_processor_id() instead.
