Not quite; with the RCU unification done 'recently' having preemption
disabled is sufficient. AFAICT preemption is disabled.

In fact; and I mentioned this to someone the other day, perhaps Joel; we
can go and delete a whole bunch of rcu_read_lock() from the scheduler --
basically undo all the work we did after RCU was split many years ago.
