With CONFIG_SMP=n:

arch/i386/kernel/crash.c: In function 'crash_save_self':
arch/i386/kernel/crash.c:91: warning: implicit declaration of function 'safe_smp_processor_id'

And it fails to link.

The reason for this is that include/linux/smp.h only includes asm/smp.h if
CONFIG_SMP=y.  This is not the cleverest thing we've ever done.

I fixed that in cowardly fashion:
