Subject[ 067/105] cpufreq / powernow-k8: Remove usage of smp_processor_id() in preemptible code
3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andreas Herrmann <andreas.herrmann3@amd.com>

commit e4df1cbcc1f329e53a1fff7450b2229e0addff20 upstream.

Commit 6889125b8b4e09c5e53e6ecab3433bed1ce198c9
(cpufreq/powernow-k8: workqueue user shouldn't migrate the kworker to another CPU)
causes powernow-k8 to trigger a preempt warning, e.g.:

BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: cpufreq/3776
caller is powernowk8_target+0x20/0x49
Pid: 3776, comm: cpufreq Not tainted 3.6.0 #9

Fix this by by always using work_on_cpu().
