Subject: [PATCH v3 0/2] fix & prevent the missing preemption disabling

The testing show that perf_ftrace_function_call() are using smp_processor_id()
with preemption enabled, all the checking on CPU could be wrong after preemption.

As Peter point out, the section between ftrace_test_recursion_trylock/unlock()
pair require the preemption to be disabled as 'Documentation/trace/ftrace-uses.rst'
explained, but currently the work is done outside of the helpers.

Patch 1/2 will make sure preemption disabled after trylock() succeed,
patch 2/2 will do smp_processor_id() checking after trylock to address the
issue.

  ftrace: disable preemption between ftrace_test_recursion_trylock/unlock()
  ftrace: do CPU checking after preemption disabled
