[PATCH 1/2] UV: NMI: insert per_cpu accessor function on uv_hub_nmi.

UV: NMI: insert this_cpu_read accessor function on uv_hub_nmi.

On SGI UV systems a 'power nmi' command from the CMC causes
all processors to drop into uv_handle_nmi(). With the 4.0
kernel this results in

BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request

The bug is caused by the current code trying to use the PER_CPU
variable uv_cpu_nmi.hub without an appropriate accessor function.
That oversight occurred in

commit e16321709c82 ("uv: Replace __get_cpu_var")

This patch inserts this_cpu_read() in the uv_hub_nmi macro restoring
the intended functionality.
