Subject: [PATCH 01/13] arm64: fpsimd: use preemp_disable in addition to local_bh_disable()

4.14.109-rt58-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@...utronix.de>

[ Upstream commit 3afdfe419c33c1655d0763e070350aad44416594 ]

In v4.16-RT I noticed a number of warnings from task_fpsimd_load(). The
code disables BH and expects that it is not preemptible. On -RT the
task remains preemptible but remains the same CPU. This may corrupt the
content of the SIMD registers if the task is preempted during
saving/restoring those registers.

Add preempt_disable()/enable() to enfore the required semantic on -RT.
