This is actually what we want. i.e., We don't want the coresight drivers
to make this call from a non-premptible context. Relying on the 
DEBUG_PREEMPT for detecting such erroneous uses is not a good idea, 
production kernels may not do this and a comment doesn't go far.
So, I think we need a :

WARN_ON(preemptible()) in here and use smp_processor_id()

Here, we are setting something for the KVM to program and if we set the
filters on the wrong Physical CPU, then we mess up the tracing.
