This version passed my tests.


Could you check the difference of CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT, please?


For alpha, hexagon, um,
CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT was previously never enabled
because kernel/Kconfig.preempt was not included.

Now, CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT can be enabled
if it is select'ed by someone.

I guess this change will be OK, but
I'd like you and Randy to double-check it just in case.
