[PATCH 2/2] powerpc: fix smp_processor_id() in preemptible splat in set_breakpoint

Currently, on 8641D, which doesn't set CONFIG_HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT
we get the following splat:

BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: login/1382
caller is set_breakpoint+0x1c/0xa0
CPU: 0 PID: 1382 Comm: login Not tainted 3.15.0-rc3-00041-g2aafe1a4d451 #1
Call Trace:
[decd5d80] [c0008dc4] show_stack+0x50/0x158 (unreliable)

 --- Exception: c01 at 0xfeee554
    LR = 0xfeee7d4

The call path in this case is:

	flush_thread
	   --> set_debug_reg_defaults
	     --> set_breakpoint
	       --> __get_cpu_var

Since preemption is enabled in the cleanup of flush thread, and
there is no need to disable it, introduce the distinction between
set_breakpoint and __set_breakpoint, leaving only the flush_thread
instance as the current user of set_breakpoint.
