Thomas Gleixner 8b0b1db013 remove put_cpu_no_resched()
put_cpu_no_resched() is an optimization of put_cpu() which unfortunately
can cause high latencies.

The nfs iostats code uses put_cpu_no_resched() in a code sequence where a
reschedule request caused by an interrupt between the get_cpu() and the
put_cpu_no_resched() can delay the reschedule for at least HZ.

The other users of put_cpu_no_resched() optimize correctly in interrupt
code, but there is no real harm in using the put_cpu() function which is
an alias for preempt_enable().  The extra check of the preemmpt count is
not as critical as the potential source of missing a reschedule.

Debugged in the preempt-rt tree and verified in mainline.

Impact: remove a high latency source
