Subject: [PATCH 2/2] coresight: alloc_perf_buf: Do not call smp_processor_id from preemptible

We find the current CPU using smp_processor_id() if the event is not bound
to a CPU, to find the node for memory allocation. Use the safe numa_node_id()
instead to avoid BUG().

 BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: perf/1743
 caller is tmc_alloc_etr_buffer+0x1bc/0x1f0
 CPU: 1 PID: 1743 Comm: perf Not tainted 5.1.0-rc6-147786-g116841e #344
 Hardware name: ARM LTD ARM Juno Development Platform/ARM Juno Development Platform, BIOS EDK II Feb  1 2019
