Naveen N. Rao c179ea2701 powerpc/kprobes: Fix warnings from __this_cpu_read() on preempt kernels
Kamalesh pointed out that we are getting the below call traces with
livepatched functions when we enable CONFIG_PREEMPT:

Commit c05b8c4474 ("powerpc/kprobes: Skip livepatch_handler() for
jprobes") introduced a helper is_current_kprobe_addr() to help determine
if the current function has been livepatched or if it has a jprobe
installed, both of which modify the NIP. This was subsequently renamed
to __is_active_jprobe().

In the case of a jprobe, kprobe_ftrace_handler() disables pre-emption
before calling into setjmp_pre_handler() which returns without disabling
pre-emption. This is done to ensure that the jprobe handler won't
disappear beneath us if the jprobe is unregistered between the
setjmp_pre_handler() and the subsequent longjmp_break_handler() called
from the jprobe handler. Due to this, we can use __this_cpu_read() in
__is_active_jprobe() with the pre-emption check as we know that
pre-emption will be disabled.

However, if this function has been livepatched, we are still doing this
check and when we do so, pre-emption won't necessarily be disabled. This
results in the call trace shown above.

Fix this by only invoking __is_active_jprobe() when pre-emption is
disabled. And since we now guard this within a pre-emption check, we can
instead use raw_cpu_read() to get the current_kprobe value skipping the
check done by __this_cpu_read().
