x86, hwmon: Fix unsafe smp_processor_id() in thermal_throttle_add_dev

Fix BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible thermal_throttle_add_dev.
We know the cpu number when calling thermal_throttle_add_dev, so we can
remove smp_processor_id call in thermal_throttle_add_dev by supplying
the cpu number as argument.

This should resolve kernel bugzilla 16615/16629.
