sched/preempt, mm/fault: Decouple preemption from the page fault logic As the fault handlers now all rely on the pagefault_disabled() checks and implicit preempt_disable() calls by pagefault_disable() have been made explicit, we can completely rely on the pagefault_disableD counter. So let's no longer touch the preempt count when disabling/enabling pagefaults. After a call to pagefault_disable(), pagefault_disabled() will return true, but in_atomic() won't.
