Borislav Petkov a743bbeef2 x86/oprofile/ppro: Do not use __this_cpu*() in preemptible context
The warning below says it all:

  BUG: using __this_cpu_read() in preemptible [00000000] code: swapper/0/1
  caller is __this_cpu_preempt_check
  CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 4.14.0-rc8 #4
  Call Trace:
   dump_stack
   check_preemption_disabled
   ? do_early_param
   __this_cpu_preempt_check
   arch_perfmon_init
   op_nmi_init
   ? alloc_pci_root_info
   oprofile_arch_init
   oprofile_init
   do_one_initcall
   ...

These accessors should not have been used in the first place: it is PPro so
no mixed silicon revisions and thus it can simply use boot_cpu_data.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
