[PATCH] genirq: Remove warning on preemptible in prepare_percpu_nmi()

[Lecopzer Chen <lecopzer.chen@mediatek.com>]

prepare_percpu_nmi() acquires lock first by irq_get_desc_lock(),
no matter whether preempt enabled or not, acquiring lock forces preempt off.

This simplifies the usage of prepare_percpu_nmi() and we don't need to
acquire extra lock or explicitly call preempt_[disable,enable]().
