Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: Don't use smp_processor_id() in preemptible context

Workqueues are preemptible even if works are queued on them with
queue_work_on(). Let's just use the policy->cpu argument here
instead of using smp_processor_id() to silence the warning.

BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: kworker/3:2/674
caller is gov_queue_work+0x28/0xb0

Also found this one. I'm tracking down a pretty bad hotplug/sysfs
race on 3.10. I've applied all the stable patches but I'm seeing this
still. I'll start another thread on this
