Subject: [PATCH v6 2/5] i2c: core: run atomic i2c xfer when !preemptible

From: Benjamin Bara <benjamin.bara@...data.com>

Since bae1d3a05a8b, i2c transfers are non-atomic if preemption is
disabled. However, non-atomic i2c transfers require preemption (e.g. in
wait_for_completion() while waiting for the DMA).

panic() calls preempt_disable_notrace() before calling
emergency_restart(). Therefore, if an i2c device is used for the
restart, the xfer should be atomic. This avoids warnings like:

[   12.667612] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 1 at kernel/rcu/tree_plugin.h:318 rcu_note_context_switch+0x33c/0x6b0
[   12.676926] Voluntary context switch within RCU read-side critical section!
...
[   12.742376]  schedule_timeout from wait_for_completion_timeout+0x90/0x114
[   12.749179]  wait_for_completion_timeout from tegra_i2c_wait_completion+0x40/0x70
...
[   12.994527]  atomic_notifier_call_chain from machine_restart+0x34/0x58
[   13.001050]  machine_restart from panic+0x2a8/0x32c

Use !preemptible() instead, which is basically the same check as
pre-v5.2.
