Would it not be move convenient to implement it in terms of the
raw_this_cpu*() thingies? That way you're sure they actually do the same
thing and there's only 1 site to change when changing the
implementation.

Something like:

#define __this_cpu_read(pcp) \
({ \
__this_cpu_preempt_check(); \
raw_this_cpu_read(pcp); \
})

I would argue for keeping the "BUG" string intact and in front of the
%s.

Because here you've forgotten it..
