Aargh, this isn't in fact correct, and that means I have to revert:

  fddf9055a60d ("lockdep: Use raw_cpu_*() for per-cpu variables")

The trouble is that on a bunch of architectures we can read the other
CPUs variable from the new CPU, long after the old CPU has continued
executing things.

So this really needs to be this_cpu_read(). Luckily Sven has already
fixed s390, but let me go audit all the other archs.
