Hmm.. the problem is that preemption is *not* disabled when
smp_processor_id is called, right?

I'm sorry, I'm not exactly sure what you mean by this, but it seems to
happen multiple places in writel-like functions. Both at probe time in
sifive_gpio_probe and sifive_spi_probe and when the spi driver is
running. Here is the full log:
