The TIF_NEED_RESCHED bit is inlined on x86 into the preemption counter. So instead checking the preemption counter against zero via preempt_count() and later checking the TIF_NEED_RESCHED bit via need_resched() we could use should_resched() which does both checks in one go. The functional difference is that we don't enter the if statement with preempt_count == 0 and TIF_NEED_RESCHED not set.
Use should_resched() instead need_resched() + preempt_count().
