A revert of a commit which pointelessly widened a preempt disabled section
which in turn caused might_sleep() to trigger. The patch intended to
prevent usage of smp_processor_id() in preemptible context, but the usage
in that case is fine because the thread is pinned on a single cpu and
therefore cannot be migrated off.

Thanks,

        tglx
