[PATCH v7 0/2] fix & prevent the missing preemption disabling

The testing show that perf_ftrace_function_call() are using smp_processor_id()
with preemption enabled, all the checking on CPU could be wrong after preemption.

As Peter point out, the section between ftrace_test_recursion_trylock/unlock()
pair require the preemption to be disabled as 'Documentation/trace/ftrace-uses.rst'
explained, but currently the work is done outside of the helpers.

And since the internal using of trace_test_and_set_recursion()
and trace_clear_recursion() also require preemption to be disabled, we
can just merge the logical together.

Patch 1/2 will make sure preemption disabled when recursion lock succeed,
patch 2/2 will do smp_processor_id() checking after trylock() to address the
issue.
