rcu: Remove preemption disabling from expedited CPU selection
It turns out that it is queue_delayed_work_on() rather than queue_work_on() that has difficulties when used concurrently with CPU-hotplug removal operations. It is therefore unnecessary to protect CPU identification and queue_work_on() with preempt_disable(). This commit therefore removes the preempt_disable() and preempt_enable() from sync_rcu_exp_select_cpus(), which has the further benefit of reducing the number of changes that must be maintained in the -rt patchset.
