Searching... done

This one: bdb43806589096ac4272fe1307e789846ac08d7c in v3.13

before

-static inline int should_resched(void)
-{
-       return need_resched() && !(preempt_count() & PREEMPT_ACTIVE);
-}

after

+static __always_inline bool should_resched(void)
+{
+       return unlikely(!*preempt_count_ptr());
+}


So,

Fixes: bdb438065890 ("sched: Extract the basic add/sub preempt_count 
modifiers")
