[PATCH v2 2/2] ftrace: do CPU checking after preemption disabled

With CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT we observed reports like:

  BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible
  caller is perf_ftrace_function_call+0x6f/0x2e0
  CPU: 1 PID: 680 Comm: a.out Not tainted
  Call Trace:
   <TASK>
   dump_stack_lvl+0x8d/0xcf
   check_preemption_disabled+0x104/0x110
   ? optimize_nops.isra.7+0x230/0x230
   ? text_poke_bp_batch+0x9f/0x310
   perf_ftrace_function_call+0x6f/0x2e0
   ...
   __text_poke+0x5/0x620
   text_poke_bp_batch+0x9f/0x310

This telling us the CPU could be changed after task is preempted, and
the checking on CPU before preemption will be invalid.

Since now ftrace_test_recursion_trylock() will help to disable the
preemption, this patch just do the checking after trylock() to address
the issue.
