Subject: [PATCH] lib: dhry: Fix unstable smp_processor_id(_) usage

When running the in-kernel Dhrystone benchmark with
CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT=y:

    BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: bash/938

Fix this by not using smp_processor_id() directly, but instead wrapping
the whole benchmark inside a get_cpu()/put_cpu() pair.  This makes sure
the whole benchmark is run on the same CPU core, and the reported values
are consistent.
