[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.2 05/53] rcu: Suppress smp_processor_id() complaint in synchronize_rcu_expedited_wait()

[ Upstream commit 2d7f00b2f01301d6e41fd4a28030dab0442265be ]

The normal grace period's RCU CPU stall warnings are invoked from the
scheduling-clock interrupt handler, and can thus invoke smp_processor_id()
with impunity, which allows them to directly invoke dump_cpu_task().
In contrast, the expedited grace period's RCU CPU stall warnings are
invoked from process context, which causes the dump_cpu_task() function's
calls to smp_processor_id() to complain bitterly in debug kernels.

This commit therefore causes synchronize_rcu_expedited_wait() to disable
preemption around its call to dump_cpu_task().
