ARM: arch_timer: Silence debug preempt warnings
Hot-plugging with CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT=y on a device with arm architected timers causes a slew of "using smp_processor_id() in preemptible" warnings: BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: sh/111 caller is arch_timer_cpu_notify+0x14/0xc8 This happens because sometimes the cpu notifier, arch_timer_cpu_notify(), is called in preemptible context and other times in non-preemptible context but we use this_cpu_ptr() to retrieve the clockevent in all cases. We're only going to actually use the pointer in non-preemptible context though, so push the this_cpu_ptr() access down into the cases to force the checks to occur only in non-preemptible contexts.
