From: Vikram Pandita <vikram.pand...@ti.com>
Introduce config option to enable CPU id reporting for printk() calls.
Its sometimes very useful to have printk also print the CPU Identifier
that executed the call. This has helped to debug various SMP issues on shipping
products.
Known limitation is, if the system gets preempted between function call and
actual printk, the reported cpu-id might not be accurate. But most of the
times its seen to give a good feel of how the N cpu's in the system are
getting loaded.
