Stefan Wiehler 9da397e5d4 mips/smp: Call rcutree_report_cpu_starting() earlier 
commit 55702ec960 upstream.

rcutree_report_cpu_starting() must be called before
clockevents_register_device() to avoid the following lockdep splat triggered by
calling list_add() when CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST=y:

  WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
  ...
  -----------------------------
  kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3680 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!

  other info that might help us debug this:

  RCU used illegally from offline CPU!
  rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 1
  no locks held by swapper/1/0.
  ...
  Call Trace:

  [<ffffffff801339d0>] start_secondary+0x50/0x3b8

raw_smp_processor_id() is required in order to avoid calling into lockdep
before RCU has declared the CPU to be watched for readers.

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
