Subject: [PATCH] scsi/mpt2sas: remove unnecesscary preempt requirement for MSIX
smp_processor_id() need used in preempt safe ENV. Otherwise, the
cpu may be preempted and run on other cpus. But here, we don't care much
the specific CPU which handler the MSI, so just replace it by
raw_smp_processor_id() to avoid preempt debug warning.

Subject: [PATCH] [SCSI] mpt2sas : Fix unsafe using smp_processor_id() in preemptible
When CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled, bug is observed in the smp_processor_id().
This is because smp_processor_id() is not called in preempt safe condition.
To fix this issue, use raw_smp_processor_id instead of smp_processor_id.
