Typically smp_processor_id() and raw_smp_processor_id() except for the
CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT. In the CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT case, smp_processor_id()
is actually debug_smp_processor_id(), which does all the checks.
I believe these checks in debug_smp_processor_id() are only valid for x86
case (aka cases were they have __smp_processor_id() defined.)
i.e x86 has a different implementation of _smp_processor_id() for stable and
unstable

How about something like the below?
