Boqun Feng 3b0e2a22d4 preempt: Introduce HAS_SEPARATE_PREEMPT_RESCHED_BITS
With the changes that enable preempt count to track IRQ disabling
nesting, we don't have enough bits in 32-bit preempt count
implementation, as a result we move NMI nesting bits out of the 32-bit
preempt count. However on the architectures that can support 64-bit
preempt count implementation, we can keep the NMI nesting bits in the
32-bit preempt count and avoid maintaining NMI nesting bits outside of
the same cache line.

Therefore HAS_SEPARATE_PREEMPT_RESCHED_BITS is introduced to allow
architectures to select this. Note that under this Kconfig, preempt
count is maintained in a 64-bit word however preempt_count() still
remains as an int because all the effective bits still fit in
(previously we mask out NEED_RESCHED bit in preempt_count()). This
should make no functional changes for existing preempt_count() users.

Enable this for x86_64 along with the introduction of the Kconfig.

[boqun: Undo the __preempt_count_{add,sub}() optimization in 32-bit
preempt count since it may introduce {over,under}flow]
