-rt ran into a problem with the soft limit spinlock inside the
non-preemptible section, because that is sleeping inside an atomic
context. But I think it makes sense for vanilla, too, to keep the
non-preemptible section as short as possible. Also, -3 lines.
Yong, Luis, could you add your Tested-bys?

Only the ratelimit checks themselves have to run with preemption
disabled, the resulting actions - checking for usage thresholds,
updating the soft limit tree - can and should run with preemption
enabled.
