Subject: [PATCH v2 net] ipv4: do not use this_cpu_ptr() in preemptible
 context

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@...gle.com>

this_cpu_ptr() in preemptible context is generally bad

Sep 22 05:05:55 br kernel: [   94.608310] BUG: using smp_processor_id()
in
preemptible [00000000] code: ip/2261
Sep 22 05:05:55 br kernel: [   94.608316] caller is
tunnel_dst_set.isra.28+0x20/0x60 [ip_tunnel]
Sep 22 05:05:55 br kernel: [   94.608319] CPU: 3 PID: 2261 Comm: ip Not
tainted
3.17.0-rc5 #82

We can simply use raw_cpu_ptr(), as preemption is safe in these
contexts.

Should fix https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=84991

v2: use latest and shiny raw_cpu_ptr(), as it seems the latest
incantation of ever changing percpu interface.
