We found an abnormally high latency when executing modprobe raid6_pq, the
latency is greater than 1.2s when CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y, greater than
67ms when CONFIG_PREEMPT=y, and greater than 16ms when CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y.
This is caused by disable the preemption, this time is too long and
unreasonable. We just need to disable migration. so used migrate_disable()/
migrate_enable() instead of preempt_disable()/preempt_enable(). This is
beneficial for CONFIG_PREEMPT=y or CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y, but no effect for
CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y.
Fixes: fe5cbc6e06c7 ("md/raid6 algorithms: delta syndrome functions")
