[PATCH] clock: Fix smp_processor_id() in preemptible bug

[Paul E. McKenney]

The v4.11-rc1 kernel emits the following splat in some configurations:

This happens because workqueue handlers run with preemption enabled
by default and the new this_scd() function accesses per-CPU variables.
This commit therefore disables preemption across this call to this_scd()
and to the uses of the pointer that it returns.  Lightly tested
successfully on x86.
