powerpc: Make doorbell check preemption safe
Doorbell can be used to cause ipi on cpus which are sibling threads on the same core. So icp_native_cause_ipi checks if the destination cpu is a sibling thread of the current cpu and uses doorbell in such cases. But while running with CONFIG_PREEMPT=y, since this section is preemtible, we can run into issues if after we check if the destination cpu is a sibling cpu, the task gets migrated from a sibling cpu to a cpu on another core. Fix this by using get_cpu()/ put_cpu() Signed-off-by: Shreyas B.
