[PATCH 2/5] x86/percpu: Relax smp_processor_id()

[Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>]

Nadav reported that since this_cpu_read() became asm-volatile, many
smp_processor_id() users generated worse code due to the extra
constraints.

However since smp_processor_id() is reading a stable value, we can use
__this_cpu_read().
