Subject: [PATCH] coresight: tmc-etf: Do not call smp_processor_id from
preemptible
During a perf session we try to allocate buffers on the "node" associated
with the CPU the event is bound to. If it is not bound to a CPU, we
use the current CPU node, using smp_processor_id(). However this is unsafe
in a pre-emptible context and could generate the splats as below :
BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: perf/2544
caller is tmc_alloc_etf_buffer+0x5c/0x60
CPU: 2 PID: 2544 Comm: perf Not tainted 5.1.0-rc6-147786-g116841e #344

Use NUMA_NO_NODE hint instead of using the current node for events
not bound to CPUs.
