Peter Zijlstra 02e525b2af locking/percpu-rwsem: Remove preempt_disable variants
Effective revert commit:

  87709e28dc ("fs/locks: Use percpu_down_read_preempt_disable()")

This is causing major pain for PREEMPT_RT.

Sebastian did a lot of lockperf runs on 2 and 4 node machines with all
preemption modes (PREEMPT=n should be an obvious NOP for this patch
and thus serves as a good control) and no results showed significance
over 2-sigma (the PREEMPT=n results were almost empty at 1-sigma).

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
