Subject: [PATCH -tip] kprobes/x86: Use preempt_enable() in optimized_callback()

Since commit a19b2e3d7839 ("kprobes/x86: Remove IRQ disabling from
ftrace-based/optimized kprobes”) removes local_irq_save/restore()
from optimized_callback(), the handler does not protected against
reschedule interrupt. If it is able to be preempted (rescheduled)
by such interrupt, we don't need to use _no_resched macro.
Let's use preempt_enable() instead.

Fixes: a19b2e3d7839 ("kprobes/x86: Remove IRQ disabling from ftrace-based/optimized kprobes”)
