Subject: preempt: provide preempt_*_(no)rt variants
Patch series "Protect vmstats on PREEMPT_RT".
When adding local_lock support to mm/page_alloc.c and reducing the
overhead of vmstats in general, I wondered how vmstats could be safe on
PREEMPT_RT as it partially relies on interrupts being disabled for the
stats that must be accurate for correctness. As it turns out, the
preempt-rt tree already encountered the same problem.
This series protects just the primary counters. While there is another
vmstat-related patch, it is related to memcg getting using local_lock and
I have not fully considered those patches and whether they are ok as-is or
need modification but this series makes a start.
Patch 1 is authored by Thomas and has not being altered.
Patch 2 is authored by Ingo but I modified what he implemented for reasons
explained in the changelog.
This patch (of 2):
RT needs a few preempt_disable/enable points which are not necessary
otherwise. Implement variants to avoid #ifdeffery.
