lockdep: Revert "lockdep: Use raw_cpu_*() for per-cpu variables"
The thinking in commit: fddf9055 ("lockdep: Use raw_cpu_*() for per-cpu variables") is flawed. While it is true that when we're migratable both CPUs will have a 0 value, it doesn't hold that when we do get migrated in the middle of a raw_cpu_op(), the old CPU will still have 0 by the time we get around to reading it on the new CPU. Luckily, the reason for that commit (s390 using preempt_disable() instead of preempt_disable_notrace() in their percpu code), has since been fixed by commit: 1196f12a ("s390: don't trace preemption in percpu macros") An audit of arch/*/include/asm/percpu*.h shows there are no other architectures affected by this particular issue.
