I just merged a different patch whcih should address this:


From: Sergey Senozhatsky <sergey.senozhatsky@xxxxxxxxx>

Fix

 BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: s2disk/3392
 caller is nr_iowait_cpu+0xe/0x1e
 Pid: 3392, comm: s2disk Not tainted 2.6.35-rc3-dbg-00106-ga75e02b #2

The initial fix was to use get_cpu/put_cpu in nr_iowait_cpu.  However,
Arjan stated that "the bug is that it needs to be nr_iowait_cpu(int cpu)".

This patch introduces nr_iowait_cpu(int cpu) and changes to it callers.

akpm: addresses about 30,000,000 different bug reports.
