sched/core: Robustify preemption leak checks
When we warn about a preempt_count leak; reset the preempt_count to
the known good value such that the problem does not ripple forward.

This is most important on x86 which has a per cpu preempt_count that is
not saved/restored (after this series). So if you schedule with an
invalid (!2*PREEMPT_DISABLE_OFFSET) preempt_count the next task is
messed up too.

Enforcing this invariant limits the borkage to just the one task.
