This reverts commit 367c820ef0.
lockup_detector_init() makes heavy use of per-cpu variables and must be
called with preemption disabled. Usually, it's handled early during boot
in kernel_init_freeable(), before SMP has been initialised.
Since we do not know whether or not our PMU interrupt can be signalled
as an NMI until considerably later in the boot process, the Arm PMU
driver attempts to re-initialise the lockup detector off the back of a
device_initcall(). Unfortunately, this is called from preemptible
context and results in the following splat:
| BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: swapper/0/1
| caller is debug_smp_processor_id+0x20/0x2c
| CPU: 2 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 5.10.0+ #276
| Hardware name: linux,dummy-virt (DT)
| Call trace:

| kernel_init_freeable+0x368/0x380

Rather than bodge this with raw_smp_processor_id() or randomly disabling
preemption, simply revert the culprit for now until we figure out how to
do this properly.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
