Subject: [PATCH] rcu/rcuscale: Fix using smp_processor_id() in preemptible warnings

BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: rcu_scale_write/69
CPU: 0 PID: 66 Comm: rcu_scale_write Not tainted 5.18.0-rc7-next-20220517-yoctodev-standard+
caller is debug_smp_processor_id+0x17/0x20
Call Trace:
<TASK>
dump_stack_lvl+0x49/0x5e
dump_stack+0x10/0x12
check_preemption_disabled+0xdf/0xf0
debug_smp_processor_id+0x17/0x20
rcu_scale_writer+0x2b5/0x580
kthread+0x177/0x1b0
ret_from_fork+0x22/0x30
</TASK>

Reproduction method:
runqemu kvm slirp nographic qemuparams="-m 4096 -smp 8" bootparams="isolcpus=2,3
nohz_full=2,3 rcu_nocbs=2,3 rcutree.dump_tree=1 rcuscale.shutdown=false
rcuscale.gp_async=true" -d

when the CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT is enabled, this_cpu_ptr() will call
debug_smp_processor_id() get current CPU number, this warning is triggered by
is_percpu_thread() in debug_smp_processor_id(), the is_percpu_thread() need to
check whether 'current->nr_cpus_allowed  == 1' and 'current->flags & PF_NO_SETAFFINITY',
invoke set_cpus_allowed_ptr() only set kthreads->nr_cpus_allowed, but the
PF_NO_SETAFFINITY is not set to kthread->flags, so add PF_NO_SETAFFINITY flags
setting.
