Subject: [PATCH] mm: trace tlb flush after disabling preemption in try_to_unmap_flush

Commit "mm: send one IPI per CPU to TLB flush all entries after unmapping
pages" added a trace_tlb_flush() while preemption was still enabled. This
means that we'll access smp_processor_id() which in turn will get us quite
a few warnings.

Fix it by moving the trace to where the preemption is disabled, one line
down.

The diff is all lies: I've moved trace_tlb_flush() one line down rather
than get_cpu() a line up ;)
