Subject[PATCH 15/30] rcu: handle quiescent states for PREEMPT_RCU=n, PREEMPT_COUNT=y
Date
With PREEMPT_RCU=n, cond_resched() provides urgently needed quiescent
states for read-side critical sections via rcu_all_qs().
One reason why this was necessary: lacking preempt-count, the tick
handler has no way of knowing whether it is executing in a read-side
critical section or not.

With PREEMPT_AUTO=y, there can be configurations with (PREEMPT_COUNT=y,
PREEMPT_RCU=n). This means that cond_resched() is a stub which does
not provide for quiescent states via rcu_all_qs().

So, use the availability of preempt_count() to report quiescent states
in rcu_flavor_sched_clock_irq().
