Subject: [PATCH 0/2] bus: CCN/CCI: Fix use of smp_processor_id()

I've just noticed that both the CCI and CCN drivers have a small
buglet in that they call smp_processor_id() from preemptible context,
which is frown upon (having just booted a 4.13 kernel with
DEBUG_PREEMPT on my Seattle, I was surprised to be greeted with a nice
backtrace...).

I've tested the CCN patch on the same Seatle box, but I've only
compile-tested the equivalent CCI patch (which is obviously correct --
famous last words...).

Thanks,

	M.
