Subject: [RFC patch 10/19] trace/bpf: Use migrate disable in trace_call_bpf()

BPF does not require preemption disable. It only requires to stay on the
same CPU while running a program. Reflect this by replacing
preempt_disable/enable() with migrate_disable/enable() pairs.

On a non-RT kernel this maps to preempt_disable/enable().
