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] Originally-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Boqun Feng <boqun@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260804161447.84806-11-boqun@kernel.org
