[PATCH 1/7] sched: Introduce preempt_count accessor functions

[Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>]

[-- Attachment #1: peterz-preempt_count-accessors.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 4948 bytes --]

Replace the single preempt_count() 'function' that's an lvalue with
two proper functions:

 preempt_count() - returns the preempt_count value as rvalue
 preempt_count_ptr() - returns a pointer to the preempt_count

Then change all sites that modify the preempt count to use
preempt_count_ptr().
