[PATCH] spin_unlock_bh() and preempt_check_resched()

Browse Source 
In _spin_unlock_bh(lock):
	do { \
		_raw_spin_unlock(lock); \
		preempt_enable(); \
		local_bh_enable(); \
		__release(lock); \
	} while (0)

there is no reason for using preempt_enable() instead of a simple
preempt_enable_no_resched()

Since we know bottom halves are disabled, preempt_schedule() will always
return at once (preempt_count!=0), and hence preempt_check_resched() is
useless here...

This fixes it by using "preempt_enable_no_resched()" instead of the
"preempt_enable()", and thus avoids the useless preempt_check_resched()
just before re-enabling bottom halves.
