[patch] linux/preempt.h needs linux/thread_info.h

From: Horms

It seems that linux/preempt.h needs to include linux/thread_info.h
in order to access current_thread_info(), which is used in
preempt_count().

I guess that all callers of preempt_count() must include
both linux/thread_info.h and linux/preempt.h directly or indirectly,
as this does not cause a compile error. I noticed the problem while
working on an unrelated issue in xen-land.
