Then just remove the "IS_ENABLED()" part and it should work just fine.

The above is a nop when CONFIG_PREEMPT is false.

Sorry, I missed the point that you want to *not* cond_resched() even in a
CONFIG_PREEMPT is false situation, if preempt_disable flag is set. That's
the reason I added the IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PREEMPT) check at the top. I
originally didn't have that, but then thought this should always happen in
that case.

Right, so just remove the IS_ENABLED() part in the beginning.

Yep (that's what I original had until I changed it)

No need, preempt_disable() is a nop when CONFIG_PREEMPT is false.

Just that you don't need to add the IS_ENABLED() part at all.
