The following trace is triggered when running ltp oom test cases:

So, re-enable preemption before schedule_work_on, then disable preemption again.
See a similar change in commit f5eb5588262cab7232ed1d77cf612b327db50767
("ring-buffer: Do not use schedule_work_on() for current CPU") as a precedent.
Since mem_cgroup_reclaim acquires mutex lock before moving forward, and mutex
can promote priority of the process which holds the mutex under PI mechanism,
so it's safe to re-enable preemption for a short period of time because it
won't be preempted by lower priority process.
