[PATCH] x86/traps: get rid of unnecessary preempt_disable/preempt_enable_no_resched

[Alexander Kuleshov]

Exception handlers which may run on IST stack calls ist_enter() at the
start of execution and ist_exit() in the end. The ist_enter() disables
preemption unconditionally and ist_exit() enables it.

Besides this, such exception handlers do additional unnecessary calls
of preempt_disable() and preempt_enable_no_resched() after/before
ist_enter()/ist_exit(). Let's get rid from them.
