i have applied both patches you sent in this thread but it still 
triggers tons of messages:

 printk: 104 messages suppressed.
 BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000001] code: distccd/9263
 caller is __handle_mm_fault+0x58/0xd70

  [<c0104a69>] error_code+0x39/0x40
  [<c110eade>] __kprobes_text_start+0x6/0x14

trying to fix it i realized that i'd have to touch tons of 
architectures, which all duplicate this piece of code:

/* Use these for per-cpu local_t variables: on some archs they are
 * much more efficient than these naive implementations.  Note they take
 * a variable, not an address.
 */
#define cpu_local_read(v)	local_read(&__get_cpu_var(v))
#define cpu_local_set(v, i)	local_set(&__get_cpu_var(v), (i))
#define cpu_local_inc(v)	local_inc(&__get_cpu_var(v))
#define cpu_local_dec(v)	local_dec(&__get_cpu_var(v))
#define cpu_local_add(i, v)	local_add((i), &__get_cpu_var(v))
#define cpu_local_sub(i, v)	local_sub((i), &__get_cpu_var(v))

#define __cpu_local_inc(v)	cpu_local_inc(v)
#define __cpu_local_dec(v)	cpu_local_dec(v)
#define __cpu_local_add(i, v)	cpu_local_add((i), (v))
#define __cpu_local_sub(i, v)	cpu_local_sub((i), (v))

that code must all be consolidated into a header in asm-generic, so that 
the per-arch file only implements _truly_ per-arch logic.
