refscale: Avoid false-positive warnings in ref_scale_reader()
If the call to set_cpus_allowed_ptr() in ref_scale_reader() fails, a later WARN_ONCE() complains. But with the advent of 570a752b ("lib/smp_processor_id: Use is_percpu_thread() instead of nr_cpus_allowed"), this complaint can be drowned out by complaints from smp_processor_id(). The rationale for this change is that refscale's kthreads are not marked with PF_NO_SETAFFINITY, which means that a system administrator could change affinity at any time. However, refscale is a performance/stress test, and the system administrator might well have a valid test-the-test reason for changing affinity. This commit therefore changes to raw_smp_processor_id() in order to avoid the noise, and also adds a WARN_ON_ONCE() to the call to set_cpus_allowed_ptr() in order to directly detect immediate failure. There is no WARN_ON_ONCE() within the test loop, allowing human-reflex-based affinity resetting, if desired. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
