x86/smp/32: Remove safe_smp_processor_id()
The safe_smp_processor_id() function was originally implemented in: dc2bc768 ("stack overflow safe kdump: safe_smp_processor_id()") to mitigate the CPU number corruption on a stack overflow. At the time, x86-32 stored the CPU number in thread_struct, which was located at the bottom of the task stack and thus vulnerable to an overflow. The CPU number is now located in percpu memory, so this workaround is no longer needed. Signed-off-by:Brian Gerst <brgerst@gmail.com> Signed-off-by:
