sched/preempt, futex: Disable preemption in UP futex_atomic_op_inuser() explicitly

Let's explicitly disable/enable preemption in the !CONFIG_SMP version
of futex_atomic_op_inuser, to prepare for pagefault_disable() not
touching preemption anymore.

Otherwise we might break mutual exclusion when relying on a get_user()/
put_user() implementation.
