Commit "x86/mm/pat: Disable preemption around __flush_tlb_all()" added a warning if __flush_tlb_all() is invoked in preemptible context. On !RT the warning does not trigger because a spin lock is acquired which disables preemption. On RT the spin lock does not disable preemption and so the warning is seen. Disable preemption to avoid the warning in __flush_tlb_all().
