Julien Grall 22f12f0df8 xen/events: events_fifo: Don't use {get,put}_cpu() in xen_evtchn_fifo_init()

This is because get_cpu() in xen_evtchn_fifo_init() will disable
preemption, but __get_free_page() might sleep (GFP_ATOMIC is not set).

xen_evtchn_fifo_init() will always be called before SMP is initialized,
so {get,put}_cpu() could be replaced by a simple smp_processor_id().

This also avoid to modify evtchn_fifo_alloc_control_block that will be
called in other context.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
