Paul, I tried this out and code wise it looks fine to me. I performed
a compile and regression test with the various kernel config options
to cover this new code.

Thanks for fixing the rcu_preempt case that my original patch missed.
Because you used the same name for the function it was an easy drop in
replacement.  :-)
