[PATCH 1/4] printk: Disable preemption for printk_sched

[John Stultz]

An earlier change in -mm (printk: remove separate printk_sched
buffers...), removed the printk_sched irqsave/restore lines
since it was safe for current users. Since we may be expanding
usage of printk_sched(), disable preepmtion for this function
to make it more generally safe to call.
