This code is called from the timer code. Surely preemption
is already disabled?

Should I change this into raw_smp_processor_id()?

Is __this_cpu_read() as fast as per_cpu(,cpu) on all
architectures?

I only had 2 1/2 hours of sleep last night, so I will not
try to rewrite it now, but I will see if there is anything
I can do to make it more readable tomorrow.

If you have any ideas before then, please let me know :)

Let me try if I can make things more readable that way.

Thanks for the review!
