Subject: powerpc/jprobes: Disable preemption when triggered through ftrace

From: Naveen N. Rao <naveen.n.rao@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 6baea433bc84cd148af1c524389a8d756f67412e upstream.

KPROBES_SANITY_TEST throws the below splat when CONFIG_PREEMPT is
enabled:

  Kprobe smoke test: started

  ---[ end trace 432dd46b4ce3d29f ]---
  Kprobe smoke test: passed successfully

The issue is that we aren't disabling preemption in
kprobe_ftrace_handler(). Disable it.
