signals, debug: fix BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible code in print_fatal_...

With print-fatal-signals=1 on a kernel with CONFIG_PREEMPT=y, sending an
unexpected signal to a process causes a BUG: using smp_processor_id() in
preemptible code.

get_signal_to_deliver() releases the siglock before calling
print_fatal_signal(), which calls show_regs(), which calls
smp_processor_id(), which is not supposed to be called from a
preemptible thread.

Make sure show_regs() runs with preemption disabled.
