So that preempt disable should in terms any warnings. However I don't
think that it is strictly needed and from scheduling point of view you
forbid a CPU migration which might be good otherwise.
Also if interrupts and everything is enabled then someone else might
invoke kfree_rcu() from BH context for instance.
