preempt: Provide preempt_[dis|en]able_nested()

On PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels, spinlocks and rwlocks are neither disabling
preemption nor interrupts. Though there are a few places which depend on
the implicit preemption/interrupt disable of those locks, e.g. seqcount
write sections, per CPU statistics updates etc.

To avoid sprinkling CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT conditionals all over the place, add
preempt_disable_nested() and preempt_enable_nested() which should be
descriptive enough.

Add a lockdep assertion for the !PREEMPT_RT case to catch callers which
do not have preemption disabled.

+ * preempt_disable_nested - Disable preemption inside a normally preempt disabled section

+ * Use for code which requires preemption protection inside a critical
+ * section which has preemption disabled implicitly on non-PREEMPT_RT
+ * enabled kernels, by e.g.:
+ *  - holding a spinlock/rwlock
+ *  - soft interrupt context
+ *  - regular interrupt handlers
+ *
+ * On PREEMPT_RT enabled kernels spinlock/rwlock held sections, soft

+ * is disabled for cases which require CPU local serialization even on
+ * PREEMPT_RT. For non-PREEMPT_RT kernels this is a NOP.
+ *
+ * The use cases are code sequences which are not serialized by a
+ * particular lock instance, e.g.:
+ *  - seqcount write side critical sections where the seqcount is not
+ *    associated to a particular lock and therefore the automatic
+ *    protection mechanism does not work. This prevents a live lock
+ *    against a preempting high priority reader.
+ *  - RMW per CPU variable updates like vmstat.
