When called by HW offloading drivers, the TC action (e.g
net/sched/act_mirred.c) code uses this_cpu logic, e.g
_bstats_cpu_update(this_cpu_ptr(a->cpu_bstats), bytes, packets)
per the kernel documention, preemption should be disabled, add that.
Before the fix, when running with CONFIG_PREEMPT set, we get a
BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: tc/3793
asserion from the TC action (mirred) stats_update callback.
Fixes: aad7e08d39bd ('net/mlx5e: Hardware offloaded flower filter statistics support')

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.
