I didn't hear any objections so here is the patch again.

[SNMP]: Fix SNMP counters with PREEMPT

The SNMP macros use raw_smp_processor_id() in process context
which is illegal because the process may be preempted and then
migrated to another CPU.

This patch makes it use get_cpu/put_cpu to disable preemption.
