Peter Zijlstra 42f3bdc5dd x86/events/intel/ds: Use the proper cache flush method for mapping ds buffers
Thomas reported the following warning:

 BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: ovsdb-server/4498
 caller is native_flush_tlb_single+0x57/0xc0
 native_flush_tlb_single+0x57/0xc0

set_pte_vaddr is used to map the ds buffers into the cpu entry area, but
there are two problems with that:

 1) The resulting flush is not supposed to be called in preemptible context

 2) The cpu entry area is supposed to be per CPU, but the debug store
    buffers are mapped for all CPUs so these mappings need to be flushed
    globally.

Add the necessary preemption protection across the mapping code and flush
TLBs globally.

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.
