sched/x86: Do not clear PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED on preempt count reset
The per-cpu preempt count of x86 contains two values, the actual preempt
count and the inverted PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED bit. If a corrupted preempt
count is detected the preempt_count_set() function is used to reset the
preempt count.
In case the inverted PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED bit is zero at the time of the
reset, the preemption indication is lost. Use raw_cpu_cmpxchg_4() to reset
only the count part and leave the PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED bit as it is.
This improves the kernel's behavior when it runs into preempt count leaks
and tries to fix them up.
